The students were excited about the dentist’s visit to our school. They have been talking about it every day. Your team was friendly and very professional. As an administrator, I was very impressed with their work and with the way they approached the students. Thank you.

The dental teams that I have encountered from Smile New York Outreach have been very friendly and efficient. They provide a service that has been so helpful for our families, and the scholars seem to get excited to go to the dentist right here at school! I also want to point out how helpful and flexible the school liaisons have been. They are wonderful with communication and provide all materials necessary to ensure a seamless process from beginning to end. I’m truly glad that I encountered this service, and I have already referred others to the program. I look forward to working with Smile New York Outreach again next year.
Hythia Bell School Counselor, AF Apollo Elementary School

Did You Know?
More than 51 million school hours are lost each year due to poor dental health.
Untreated cavities can cause pain, infection, and problems eating, speaking, and learning.
About 20% of kids ages 5 to 11 have at least one untreated decayed tooth.
Dental Sealants prevent 80% of cavities in the back teeth, where 9 in 10 cavites occur.
Children without sealants have almost three times more cavities than those with sealants.
