Santa Fe Group Mission

The Santa Fe Group is a 501(c) (3), action-oriented think tank with a passion to improve lives through oral health. Since its inception 25 years ago, the Santa Fe Group has been instrumental as a neutral convener, communicator, connector and catalyst to move the needle on critical issues such as oral cancer, dental education reform, children’s oral health, improved primary care access, the importance of linking medical and dental health systems, and most recently, expanding oral healthcare for our nation’s seniors.

 

Santa Ge Group Vision

The Santa Fe Group’s vision is rooted in advancing oral health equity and promoting the vital connection between oral health and overall health. Guided by innovation, education, and public policy, we convene leaders across dentistry, medicine, public health, and industry to address the nation’s most pressing challenges—from early oral cancer detection and dental education reform to expanding access to care for older adults. Our vision emphasizes medical–dental integration, reduced health disparities, and solutions that improve lives and strengthen communities.
