    Dr. Carolina Vera: Build Your Smile Foundation: Latin America

    Dr. Carolina Vera Director of Build Your Smile Dental Foundation: Latin America Dr. Carolina Vera graduated graduated from the Faculty of Dentistry of the National Autonomous University of Mexico, and has completed fellowships in Prosthetics and Aesthetic Restorative Dentistry. Her studies brought her to the United States where she obtained her Masters of Science in Prosthodontics at the University of North Carolina, and shortly thereafter obtained her DDS in the USA and began her academic career in prosthodontics. She has been deeply involved with The Mexico Project, which she has been running in partnership with the University of North Carolina for the past decade. https://redglobalmxvirtual.org/ Dr. Vera is currently working towards her second Masters degree in Sleep Medicine at the Catholic University of Murcia in Spain. She is an advocate for other philanthropic programs developed by the Government of Mexico and the Ministries of Foreign Affairs in both North and South Carolina. Dr. Vera's goal is to continue creating and expanding international programs that provide aid to marginalized communities so that she can reach more people in need. Email cvera@email.unc.edu Address Adams School of Dentistry Oral and Craniofacial Health Sciences CB #7455 Chapel Hill North Carolina, 27599-7450 The Build Your Smile Dental Foundation is based on the principle that dental care is a basic human right and that it should not be a luxury afforded to only a select few. This mission has seen the BYSF team form partnerships around the globe -  locally in Toronto, to Costa Rica, Uganda, and Mexico. What began as providing basic dental care - hygiene and extractions - to underserved and impoverished communities quickly evolved to include innovating creative solutions for the delivery of more complex procedures. These procedures include implant placement and 'Dentures-in-a-Day'. Its services are not limited to treatment alone. A core objective of its mission is to ultimately make their services obsolete in outreach communities by providing dental education and clinical training to dental professionals in those remote areas so that they can continue to provide ongoing dental care to their communities in our absence and ultimately allow us to move forward and partner with new communities. BYSF brings quality dental care to everyone who needs it. The only limitation is the number of organizational partners who join their mission, and the number of dental and oral care providers who want to give back. Its work would not be possible without the kindness and dedication of volunteers and the caring generous donors.
