Filling the Gap provides pro bono dental treatment for vulnerable people who are unable to access mainstream oral health services.

Thanks to our many partners and volunteers we can support hundreds of people each year who would otherwise not be able to get treatment.

Your donation or offer of volunteering will ensure that we can run our programs this year. We have many different ways you can give the gift of a smile.

Filling the Gap provides volunteering opportunities for members and bringing all benevolent programs under one umbrella.
