Operating in 19 IMC locations throughout Uganda, including its flagship clinic at C-Care IMC Kololo, Nyonyi Gardens, Dentcare is set to redefine oral health services with its comprehensive range of treatments and state-of-the-art technology.

Dentcare aims to tackle the high prevalence of oral health issues in Uganda, as reported by the Ministry of Health, over 75% of adults and 90% of children in Uganda suffer from oral health issues such as tooth decay annually. This widespread concern underscores the urgent need for improved dental care, which Dentcare aims to address. One prominent determinant of oral disease, as highlighted by Uganda’s national oral health policy, is the lack of regular oral health checkups. Dentcare is committed to solving this challenge by providing accessible and comprehensive dental services across its 19 branches nationwide.

Dentcare is poised to offer precise diagnostics and effective treatments. The service not only signifies a substantial investment in the country’s dental facilities but also broadens the availability of top-tier dental care to a wider population, addressing a critical need for improved oral health services in Uganda.

Dentcare offers a full spectrum of dental services, including:

Preventive Dentistry: Routine cleanings, exams, and education to prevent dental issues before they arise.

During the launch, Andrew Mugalu, General Manager of Dentcare, commended the efforts of all staff involved in bringing the service to fruition. He expressed appreciation for the ongoing developments to ensure Dentcare’s presence across Uganda. “I would like to take this opportunity to thank the C-Care team for initiating the vision of providing Ugandans with quality dental care services that will promote oral health among both the young and the old,” Mugalu said. “In this same spirit, I call upon everyone to promote oral health in their communities, whether in schools or at home.
