OHA recently spoke to Plackers Director of Marketing Tom Barman about the company’s involvement with Fall for Smiles® and Smiles Across America®, including sponsoring the first-ever SAA Innovation Grants this year.

Plackers is thrilled to have the opportunity to work with OHA and support Smiles Across America and Fall for Smiles. Plackers is committed to educating families about the importance of regular oral health care routines such as flossing and brushing daily and we see tremendous value in OHA’s message and mission. Through our partnership, we have been able to provide funding and Plackers dental flosser products that have helped OHA expand the scope of community outreach programs that reach thousands of children across America. This year we have increased our involvement by sponsoring the Smiles Across America Innovation Grant program to help even more community partners broaden their reach and raise awareness of dental health issues in the U.S. Giving back to the community is important, and we’re happy to do our part in helping ensure that underserved communities have access to the oral care products and services they need.
