Overview

Mission

Community smiles dental improves the lives of the underserved through oral healthcare services, preventive education, and advocating for systemic healthcare change, because everyone deserves a healthy smile.

What it reported doing in 2025

Community smiles dental served 4,861 unique patients in 2025. Of those served, 27% of patients were new to csd and found long-awaited dental care at csd clinics. In total, the organization provided a total value of care of $4.1 million in 2025. Programming continues to focus on children (89%), pregnant moms, individuals with special health needs, and some adult care, treating those who would likely have nowhere else to turn for dental treatment.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
