Introduction: The purpose of this initiative is to build a group of young leaders globally that will apply innovative thought processes and actions throughout their careers to address the challenges of oral health improvement. We trust that continued development of these young leaders early in their careers will support exponential growth for access to oral health worldwide. By building sustainable projects and supporting the implementation of community based preventive oral health systems, we will begin a movement to reduce the burden of global oral disease in many regions that do not have access to proper care.
