Help Dr. Loewen's Legacy Pediatric Dental Practice

Support a Beloved Pediatric Dentist and a Legacy Practice

Dear Friends and Community,

We are reaching out with heavy hearts to share the story of a long-time board-certified pediatric dentist who recently suffered an unimaginable loss. This beloved pediatric dentist Dr. Carrie Loewen, who has been a pillar in the Pacific Palisades community, lost her practice—a place where generations of children received gentle, expert care.

This practice was more than just a dental office; it was a legacy. Founded by the late Phil Trask, a revered pediatric dentist who dedicated his life to building it from the ground up, this practice became a beacon of compassionate care and a cornerstone of our community. Phil Trask put his heart and soul into every aspect of the practice, creating a space where both children and parents felt safe and supported. Dr. Carrie Loewen stepped into that practice and has continued that legacy serving hundreds of children in the Palisades community and beyond.

Today, that cherished practice lays in ruins, a devastating blow not only to the current dentist but also to the countless families who have come to rely on it. Supporting this practice will require significant resources, and that's where we humbly ask for your help. If you have new dental materials, supplies or dental equipment OR know a vendor who can help our dear colleague ..anything helps!

You can message Dr. Loewen directly if you can send dental supplies or materials for her personal mailing address (Carrie Loewen Martinez)

We are seeking monetary donations or new dental supplies to support this vital community resource. Of course, many of her patients have been personally impacted as well and having their dental care uninterrupted is just one small comfort. Your contribution, no matter how small, will go directly towards sipporting the practice, ensuring that it can continue to serve our community's children for years to come.

Let’s come together to honor Phil Trask’s legacy and support our dedicated Dr. Carrie Loewen in this time of need. Your kindness and generosity will help bring this practice back to life, preserving a place that has brought smiles to so many faces.

Thank you for your support, your compassion, and your commitment to our community.
