Dr. Barrineau consistently demonstrates her life-long commitment to social responsibility.  It is part of her DNA. Whether coaching local youth sports teams or sharing her expertise within the community, Dr. Barrineau weaves herself throughout our local community.

National Dental Health Month

For the past 15 years during National Dental Health Month, Dr. Barrineau and her staff reach over 1200 children annually in Santa Rosa and Escambia County, educating them on the importance of good oral hygiene. This outreach focuses on brushing, flossing, healthy eating habits and regular dental visits.  According to the American Dental Association, nearly half of tooth decay in primary teeth of children ages 2-11 is untreated.  Serious tooth decay has a direct impact on the ability to eat, learn, sleep, and live.  For our more socioeconomically disadvantaged youth, Dr. Barrineau’s commitment is life changing for them.

Every Smile Has a Story

Most recently, Dr. Barrineau joined Dr. Pat Ricalde, along with an esteemed group of doctors, in launching “Every Smile Has a Story,” an international non-profit organization providing free life-changing craniofacial surgery. Craniofacial anomalies have become the most common live birth defect, with 1 out of 700 babies in the United States born with Cleft Lip and/or Palate.
