Ashtel Dental and 7 Day Dental donate toothbrushes for Hatian relief efforts






In wake of the earthquake that devastated Haiti, Ashtel Dental of Fontana, Calif. and 7 Day Dental of Anaheim, Calif., donated a combined 20,000 children’s toothbrushes to the Giving Children Hope Foundation of Buena Park, Calif., for their relief efforts in Haiti. The donation was given to the foundation after executives from Ashtel Dental and 7 Day Dental heard of the foundation’s plans to send them to the children in Haiti that had lost their homes and their families in the earthquake.

“We want to help however we can,” said Yousuf Nabi, vice president of marketing for Ashtel Dental.

“Our prayers are with everyone in Haiti and we hope our small donation helps those in need during this tough time.”

Giving Children Hope (GCH) has already sent 47,000 pounds of medical supplies and disaster relief, as well as $1 million worth of lifesaving pharmaceuticals to treat the survivors in Haiti. GCH has also sent two relief teams to Haiti to administer and distribute aid, as well as assess current needs on the ground. The foundation will “continue to accept monetary donations and new relief product for those in Haiti,” said Harmony Trevino, the foundation’s communications coordinator. “This is an ongoing relief effort where Giving Children Hope will ontinually send food, water, hygiene products and medical supplies.”

Children get some guidance

Ashtel Dental’s Brush Buddies talking toothbrush is an innovation in children’s oral care, says chief executive officer Anish Patel. The product features a dog character design and an amusing voice that Patel says children will enjoy.
“But we have designed this product to be more than just cute,” he says.

Rather than focus strictly on entertainment, the audio played back through Brush Buddies educates youngsters and encourages healthy brushing habits. The voice recording plays for two minutes, letting children know the ecommended brushing time. The audio also guides children to brush each section of their teeth, starting with the upper teeth.
