Thank you to our PDS Health team members, Smile Generation–trusted offices, and generous patients who helped fundraise, assemble Smile Kits, and support care for patients with special needs.

Together, we are expanding access to care, strengthening advocacy, and supporting training that empowers clinicians to better serve individuals with disabilities, more than 61 million people across the U.S.

We’re creating happier, healthier communities, one smile at a time.

Periodontal disease affects millions and has been linked to diabetes, heart disease, pregnancy complications, and cognitive decline.

As reports, new tools like AI imaging and saliva diagnostics are helping clinicians detect these risks earlier, starting with signs of inflammation in the mouth.

These technologies are already in use within PDS Health practices, and our clinicians are identifying early indicators of systemic disease every day.

Founder and CEO Stephen E. Thorne IV is among the healthcare leaders featured in the article.

Earlier this month, PDS Health® proudly joined Roseman University of Health Sciences to celebrate the dedication of the new Thorne Clinic for Integrative Oral Health and Primary Care in Henderson, Nevada.

Made possible through the leadership and generosity of Stephen E. Thorne IV, the clinic was designed to expand access to care, enhance dental education, and give students hands-on opportunities to understand the connection between oral and overall health.

Together with Roseman University, we’re helping shape the next generation of healthcare professionals and advancing a more integrated, patient-centered model of care.

October is National Dental Hygiene Month! 🦷💙

Dental hygienists do so much more than clean teeth and gums.

They:
✅ Educate patients on oral care
✅ Screen for oral diseases
✅ Provide care that helps prevent or slow health issues

They’re also at the frontlines of sharing knowledge about the Mouth-Body Connection®—the important link between oral health and conditions like Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and heart disease.

This month, we celebrate and thank all dental hygienists for the essential care they provide every day!

Big thanks to our Summer 2025 Interns! 🎉

This summer we welcomed twelve interns to our support center in Irvine, CA, who assisted multiple departments with hands-on projects, participated in team building activities and workshops, and grew both personally and professionally.

We are so excited to see everything they'll accomplish in the future, and are so thankful for their contributions this summer!
