In support of local public health, Dairyland has donated $5,000 towards a new pediatric dental laser at Gundersen Health System. 

“Dairyland is proud to support Gundersen Health System and their efforts to make healthcare accessible to everyone in our community,” said Brent Ridge, Dairyland President & CEO. “As a cooperative committed to supporting our local communities, we are pleased to collaborate with Gundersen to aid in the Pediatric Dentistry laser project.”

The Solea Laser not only improves pediatric patient treatments, it increases availability for scheduling more patients with urgent dental needs. Pediatric dental appointments currently book around 4 to 6 months out; however, with the addition of the Solea Laser equipment, two additional patients can be scheduled each day, which opens availability to treat eight extra patients per week.
