Encounter Dental Mission 🦷🌱✨

One-of-a-kind initiative launched by social media to form a unique dental mission team comprised of dentists, dental students, pre-dental students, and supporters to provide quality dental care to the underserved globally, united with a purpose to emulate Christ's love for the world 🌎

What We Do

Encounter Dental Mission team was formed when Dr. Gloria Park shared about her dental mission work on social media and many followers/friends near and far wanted to join! After receiving so many DMs, she put together a sign up sheet for those interested in knowing about other volunteer opportunities, and a lot of dentists/dental volunteers signed up that day. There are many helping hands and generous hearts behind this initiative, and we are excited to announce our inaugural group (many not pictured here!) and dental mission trip. We will be building relationships (with a missionary) with a minority group in Dominican Republic this June 2025 and provide quality dental care including dental cleaning, fillings (treat cavities), extractions, oral health education, and more. We also have a mentor (a prosthodontist) on board with us to help make removable partial dentures at the mission site, so it's looking pretty exciting!
