Parents, keep your children healthy with in-school dental care.
What Our School Partners Are Saying...
Smile New York Outreach is a wonderful in-school dental program. Our students were engaged and excited about the dentist visiting. It was beneficial to have so many of our students receive dental health services and walk out with clean and treated teeth. Thank You. The dental staff was caring, supportive and professional. Our overall experience was great!
Audra Jimenez Director of Counseling and Student Support Services, Storefront Academy Harlem
I am amazed by the staff who come to the school to provide dental services to scholars who need them. They were professional, friendly, supportive, and patient.
I want to thank SMILE NEW YORK OUTREACH for partnering with our school to support wellness and dental health.I would recommend the SMILE NEW YORK OUTREACH to any school!! We thank you for helping us create a “community school” with wrap-around services before the buzz phrase was created by the Mayor’s office. We appreciate you and look forward to your return next year!!!
Patricia Mitchell Principal, PS48Q
The Dental Team did a phenomenal job. Thank you for your service to my community. I am also grateful that two of my seniors, who are interested in the dentistry field, were able to shadow the team.
Gregory Wooten Parent Coordinator, PS/IS 165
This program is excellent, organized, and professional. We always have an amazing experience with them.
Ryan Radow Teacher, Lincoln Elementary
Our entire experience with Smile New York Outreach was wonderful. The office staff was friendly, organized and helpful in answering all of our questions and getting our school scheduled and our children signed up. The dental team that came to our school was professional and efficient. They made time for every single one of our kids who wanted to be seen and were warm and welcoming, particularly to our younger kindergarteners who were a bit nervous. The on-the-ground manager Gabby was extremely organized and helped the process move along swiftly so that kids did not miss too much time out of their academic subjects. I would absolutely recommend Smile New York Outreach to all schools!
Julia Simmons School Social Worker , Achievement First Endeavor Elementary School
The Smile New York Outreach staff were patient, professional and very friendly. Their efficiency in coordinating with the school staff to service our students was good and many of our students were able to receive services they might not have otherwise received. We look forward to their return next school year.
Yasmin Davidson School Nurse, M.S. 358Q/ P.S. 349Q
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.

Smile New York Outreach is here to help fight the war on dental decay, one child at a time.
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.
