Like many, Betty McFeely, DENSTPLY Professional‘s Denim Day Coordinator had a personal connection to the cause, “As a breast cancer SURVIVOR, I am very happy to raise donations for Lee National Denim Day in support of the American Cancer Society and I am thrilled that DENTSPLY Professional has chosen to donate proceeds of our pink Midwest RDH Freedom Cordless Prophy System to them as well.” Donations help the American Cancer Society discover new ways to prevent, find, and cure breast cancer while ensuring access to mammograms and providing free support to people with the disease.
