In a heartening display of collaboration and commitment to transforming lives one smile at a time, Smile Train, the world’s largest cleft-focused organization, and Dentsply Sirona, the world’s largest manufacturer of professional dental products and technologies, joined forces to support the Noordhoff Craniofacial Foundation Philippines (NCFP) by donating two Primescan Connect intraoral scanners and an Orthophos S 3D extraoral x-ray imaging system. A Primeprint 3D printer will also be delivered later this year. The gift marks a significant stride in advancing cleft care for children in need across the nation.

Primescan is an intraoral scanner that allows the performance of high-precision digital impressions of the patient’s mouth, without the use of traditional impression material. The Orthophos S 3D extraoral x-ray imaging system, on the other hand, offers high-resolution panoramic and cephalometric imaging, providing comprehensive insights into craniofacial structures with unparalleled clarity. Its precision and efficiency make it an invaluable tool for diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring progress for patients with clefts.
With this generous donation, NCFP gains access to cutting-edge technology that empowers their team of medical professionals to deliver even more personalized and effective care. The panoramic and cephalometric x-ray capabilities of Orthophos S 3D enable precise evaluations of craniofacial anomalies, facilitating tailored treatment approaches for each patient. From surgical planning to orthodontic interventions, this advanced imaging system equips the foundation with the tools necessary to address children with clefts’ unique needs with greater accuracy and efficiency.
Smile Train and Dentsply Sirona deserve commendation for their unwavering dedication to making quality healthcare accessible to underserved communities. Their support has helped countless people overcome barriers to treatment. This collaboration, just the latest life-changing venture to come out of the organizations’ five-year partnership, underscores the profound impact that corporate social responsibility can have in fostering positive change and uplifting marginalized populations.
Expressing gratitude to Smile Train and Dentsply Sirona, NCFP eagerly anticipates the transformative impact of the Orthophos S 3D extraoral x-ray imaging system on their patient care initiatives. With enhanced diagnostic capabilities and treatment precision, they are now poised to provide even better outcomes and brighter futures to Filipinos with clefts.
As NCFP embraces this new chapter in their journey, they remain steadfast in their commitment to serving the needs of their patients with compassion and excellence.
