Meet our founder, Dr Funmi Adeniyi
The dentist behind Luxe Dental, and the Foundation she started to make oral health accessible to all.
The Smile Doctor Foundation was officially established in 2020, but its roots go back to the passion of Dr Olufunmilayo (Funmi) Adeniyi, its founder and convener. Working in dentistry, she saw first-hand how many people, especially the underprivileged, could not get the oral care and education they needed.
Dr Adeniyi founded Luxe Dental in 2019. Beyond the clinic she hosts the Made for More podcast, has written books, and supports women through the Academy for Women Entrepreneurs Alumnae Association.
