Safari N Smiles

Ultimate Family Dental Safari: Combining Dental Continuing Education CEs, Culture & Wildlife Conservation

You’ve earned your credentials. You’ve built your career. But now you want something more—something meaningful that doesn’t come at the cost of leaving your family behind.

Welcome to Safari N Smiles, where dental professionals earn CE credits, engage in mission work, and experience wild African beauty—with their loved ones by their side.

Here’s how to plan the ultimate dental safari for your family—one that blends service, connection, and once-in-a-lifetime memories.

1. Choose a Trip That Welcomes Families

Many CE trips are built for solo travelers. Not us. Safari N Smiles is intentionally designed for dentists, hygienists, and dental entrepreneurs to bring their spouses, kids, or even parents.

We offer multi-day trips that include:

Daily dental outreach opportunities

Family-friendly safari excursions

Cultural immersion experiences for all ages

You won’t have to choose between serving and spending time with your loved ones.

2. Earn CE Without Compromising Vacation Time

Each trip offers up to 16 hours of accredited CE, often through hands-on clinic work, case reviews, and evening fireside lectures.

You’ll return home with:

Your CE requirements completed

Clinical experiences you’ll never forget

A deeper understanding of global oral health

And the best part? You did it while exploring the savannah and bonding with your family.

3. Safaris That Leave Your Kids in Awe

Your kids will never forget seeing a giraffe walk past your safari van or hearing lions roar at night. We organize safe, guided game drives that are both educational and thrilling.

Even the youngest travelers will learn about:

Wildlife conservation

African geography and culture

The value of giving back

“My 7-year-old still talks about the elephants and how we helped children like him get clean teeth.” — Dr. Melissa P., Illinois

4. Cultural Learning for the Whole Family

In addition to safari drives and dental outreach, we organize experiences like:

Visiting Maasai villages

Learning traditional African crafts

Cooking with local chefs

Attending tribal dances and storytelling nights

It’s not just a vacation—it’s a deep cultural dive for your whole family.

5. Strengthen Family Bonds Through Service

There’s something profound about serving together. Watching your kids pass out toothbrushes, seeing your spouse interact with a patient, or comforting a child in pain—these are moments that stick.

Families leave our trips more connected, more grateful, and more aware of their privilege and power to make a difference.
