Donate to the Special Smiles program.
Dr. Perlman is a past recipient of the Harold Berk Award for Excellence in the Treatment of Persons with Disabilities. The award is given in honor of Pulpdent's founder, Dr. Harold Berk, who was a founding member of the American Academy of Dentistry for Handicapped Children, now part of the Federation of Special Care Organizations.
According to Dr. Perlman, "children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities are the most medically and dentally underserved population. In addition, they tend to have the highest burden of disease. It is in Pulpdent's DNA to support programs like Special Olympics Special Smiles. We at Special Olympics are deeply grateful for Pulpdent's generous donation and for the company's longstanding commitment to improving access to oral health care for people with intellectual and development disabilities."
