About Us
Hygeia Corp was founded in 2020 by Kathy Rezba, a dedicated local dental hygienist with a passion for improving senior oral health. After witnessing the rapid decline in oral care among the aging population in long-term care facilities, Kathy recognized the urgent need for accessible, preventive dental services.
Hygeia Corp, a nonprofit mobile dental organization, brings professional oral care directly to nursing homes, ensuring that seniors receive the cleanings, screenings, and treatments they need to maintain both oral and overall health. Through on-site visits, teledentistry, and caregiver education, Hygeia is committed to enhancing the quality of life for seniors with compassionate, preventive dental care.
