Your Community. Your Smile. YourNDCC.

The Neighborhood Dental Care Center (NDCC) is more than our name—it’s our commitment to healthier smiles and stronger communities.

YourNDCC is how we bring that commitment closer to home: a place where families, partners, educators, and neighbors can connect with oral health education, prevention programs, and accessible resources.

Meet our Founder

Zaney Marena Perez

Founder & Executive Director

Through years of community work in Miami, Zaney witnessed firsthand the difficult choices many families face when household budgets are stretched between rent, food, healthcare, and other essential needs. Too often, dental care is postponed or simply becomes unaffordable.

Why NDCC was created

Bridging gaps in oral health

That understanding inspired the creation of Neighborhood Dental Care Center: an organization built to help bridge gaps in oral health through education, prevention, community partnerships, and accessible resources.

Working together

Healthier smiles, stronger communities

Today, NDCC works alongside families, community organizations, educators, healthcare professionals, and partners to help make oral health knowledge and preventive resources more accessible throughout South Florida, with a special commitment to historically underserved communities.

We believe healthier smiles can strengthen families, build confidence, and contribute to healthier communities.
