Hi! I’m Eesha Matharasi, a high school student and co-founder of Dental Hygiene Matters (DHM). While I stay active in clubs like DECA, HOSA, NHS, Student Council, and SHS, my deepest passion is in the work I do with DHM. I’ve always been drawn to healthcare, and dentistry stood out to me because it’s often overlooked—even though it's key to overall health, confidence, and quality of life.

Through DHM, I’ve found a purpose in fighting dental poverty and bringing awareness to the importance of oral hygiene. I’ve seen firsthand how a lack of access to dental care can affect someone’s well-being, and I’m determined to help close that gap. Whether it’s through organizing events, donating hygiene kits, or mentoring new chapter leaders, every part of this work fuels my passion for creating lasting change.
