The Christian Dental Society, is a 501-C-3 domestic and international non-profit organization that functions to provide oral health care to those in need.

The Bible gives numerous examples of how meeting a person's physical needs can open the door to addressing their deeper spiritual needs through the person and work of Jesus Christ.  It is our hope that the dental services we offer will be a great encouragement to those who already belong to the Lord, and that non-Christians will be challenged to consider their need for the salvation that comes by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.   In this way, we seek to glorify God through dentistry.

Our Mission
To carry out the GREAT COMMISSION given by Christ in Matthew 28:19 & 20 through dentists and dentistry.

How We Began
During the 1962 American Dental Association Convention, 12 interested dentists met in Miami, Florida to hear Dr. T.A. Stevenson, medical secretary of the United Presbyterian Foreign Missions, outline the dental needs of church-related hospitals and clinics all over the world

That group selected Dr. John McInnes, dentist from Tucson, Arizona, as temporary chairman and named itself "The Christian Dental Society" (CDS). The Society opened its membership to dentists of all faiths interested in furthering foreign mission dental programs. CDS was formally organized in 1963 during the annual ADAAtlantic City, and the next year the Society was incorporated in Colorado as a nonprofit organization. convention in

Who We Serve
The Christian Dental Society helps to facilitate dental care for the needy around the world.  We cooperate with churches, volunteer agencies, and service organizations to provide volunteers, equipment, and supplies to those with dental needs.
