HEALTHY FOUNDATION OneWorld expands pediatric dental services with new Minecraft-inspired clinic

“We are focusing in pediatrics in this clinic because kids can’t really fend for themselves,” said Dr. Brian Penly, Dental Director. “They are where they are at through no fault of their own, but because of the situation they were born into, and oftentimes the lack of education the community has in relation to oral health.

By age five, nearly 60% of children have tooth decay. By age 17, that number jumps to nearly 80%, according to the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. OneWorld’s new pediatric dental clinic is challenging these statistics by helping children in the Omaha metro area receive the dental care they need.
