Our Founder
Meet Dr. Mathew Jensen
Dr. Matthew Jensen and his wife, Linda Jensen, are the co-founders of the Dental Outreach Relief Foundation, a nonprofit organization inspired by their shared passion for serving others and improving lives. Dr. Matt, a pediatric dentist from Surprise, Arizona, has been dedicated to providing exceptional dental care to children since 2006. His professional background, combined with Lindaās compassionate heart for helping those in need, created the foundationās strong foundation of purpose and care.
Dr. Matt has spent his career bridging the gap for nervous, anxious children, helping them overcome fear and develop a love for visiting the dentist. While his work has been incredibly rewarding, He has also encountered the stark realities of severe dental disease, neglect, and life-threatening infectionsāchallenges that many face without access to quality care. Living in the United States, where such issues can often be addressed through available resources,
Dr. Matt couldnāt ignore the disparities in access to care in other parts of the world. The seeds for the foundation were planted during Dr. Mattās dental school years when he participated in his first mission trip to Jamaica, providing care to those in remote and underserved areas.
Over the past five years, his passion for service expanded as he led teams to Mexico, delivering much-needed dental care to vulnerable communities. Witnessing the transformative impact of these efforts fueled his determination to do more.
Lindaās deep compassion and unwavering commitment to making a difference inspired the vision to take their work further. Together, Matt and Linda formed the Dental Outreach Relief Foundation to extend critical dental care to those in the worldās most remote and underserved areas. Their mission is ambitious but clear: to provide essential and emergency dental services globally and become a leading force for change in oral healthcare.
With their combined dedication and expertise, the Jensens have created a platform that is not just about treating dental issues but about restoring hope, dignity, and smiles to individuals and communities in need. The foundation is still young, but its mission is growing stronger each day, driven by the belief that everyone deserves access to life-saving dental care.
