Pediatric Dental Initiative is a nonprofit organization operating in the hospitals and health care sector that provides specialized dental care for underserved youth and children with special needs, including cases requiring extensive work under general anesthesia. Based in Windsor, California, the organization partners with Federally Qualified Health Centers, Indian Health Services, other community clinics, and private dentists to offer access to high-quality pediatric dental treatment at its ambulatory surgery center, which is accredited by AAHC. The dual focus on treatment and prevention education aims to improve oral health equity through case management, health education, and community outreach, addressing disparities in oral health outcomes for children in Northern California. Since its founding in 2008, PDI has treated tens of thousands of pediatric and special needs patients across numerous counties and has educated tens of thousands of families about better oral health. A notable recent development is the appointment of a new executive director in 2023, reflecting organizational leadership activity within the local health community.
