"The importance of a good functional dentition for nutritional health, and a beautiful smile for self-esteem..."

Picture
OUR SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY
We educate the public and those with Sickle Cell disease or the Sickle Cell Trait of the importance of early dental prevention. Our past activities have allowed us to work directly with Sickle Cell patients by educating them on good dental habits, the importance of brushing and flossing and the need for frequent dental appointments.

SICKLE CELL AWARNESS
Our present activities include reaching out to the community, and medical and dental professionals to educate them about Sickle Cell Disease and the importance of good and maintained dental treatment. 
We teach the importance of a good functional dentition for their nutritional health, a beautiful smile for their self-esteem, and the repair of decayed teeth which may place the Sickle Cell patient in a crisis condition; our activities include educational events, publications, and community outreach. 
    The Potters Smile goal is to promote basic and translational research necessary in the dental community and support initiatives to increase community participation in dental research and dental treatment for the Sickle Cell Community. Basic and clinical dental research efforts are important to expanding the knowledge of how Sickle Cell Disease and the Sickle Cell Trait affects the dental and the pathophysiology of Sickle Cell Disease.  This knowledge will help to ensure awareness and proper dental treatment for patients with Sickle Cell Disease and the Sickle Cell Trait.

The Potter’s Smile is the only 501c3 in the United States and possibly the world, that addresses the dental issues associated with Sickle Cell Disease and the Sickle Cell Trait.  We are dedicated to dental education, dental research, and access to quality dental treatment.

​The exact number of people living with Sickle Cell disease (SCD) or the Sickle Cell Trait (SCT) in the United States of America is unknown. Congress passed the National Sickle Cell Anemia Control Act in 1972 and a law was passed in 1974 requiring every child born of color to be tested for SCD. Unfortunately, the states were slow to comply, and it wasn’t until 2006 (32 years later) that ALL states were testing. Now we have generations of people living here in the USA that do not know their sickle cell status. SCD can cause a lot of complications such as kidney disease, high blood pressure, stroke etc... A lot of people may have these complications and may not understand why. The culprit could be SCD! Take this simple survey. One of our goals at The Potters Smile is to survey,  test and evaluate for SCD. We believe that the cure is in prevention. The more knowledge you have, the more preventive we can become.
