Matches Dental Practice Purchases of OraCare Rinse with In-kind Donations to Cancer Patients
February 3, 2022; Bridgeport, West Virginia — in recognition of National World Cancer Day, OraCare is expanding the scope of its OraCare Cares program with an inkind donation to cancer patients when participating dentists purchase OraCare Rinse.
Under the new initiative, called “Your Order, Their Relief”, the company will send a free set of OraCare Rinse to patients suffering side effects of radiation or chemotherapy, with each order placed.
“OraCare was invented for general hygiene patients as a better alternative to chlorhexidine rinses. But almost immediately we started hearing from cancer patients telling us that it provides incredible relief from their uncomfortable side effects. We started the OraCare Cares Program specifically to help more of these patients,” said Dr. Robert Martino, OraCare CEO. Initially launched in November of 2020, the OraCare Cares program invites OraCare practices to register their patients facing cancer treatment to receive a free rinse kit. To date, the program has helped more than 2,000 cancer patients.
The new “Your Order, Their Relief” initiative expands the company’s scope of support for cancer patients by creating a pledge of in-kind donations for every order placed. Dental providers looking to support the initiative can purchase online at oracareproducts.com or via phone at (855) 255-6722. With each order, one set of rinse will be automatically donated to patients in need, as designated by the participating practice, complements of OraCare.
“Cancer patients have a unique set of dental health challenges, and they rely on dentists and their teams to help them cope,” said Kristin Goodfellow RDH, OraCare’s Clinical Director. “We think World Cancer Day is the perfect occasion to announce our increased commitment to supporting OraCare practices which in turn help so many patients at the most challenging points in their lives.”
