Parents, keep your children healthy with in-school dental care.
What Our School Partners Are Saying...
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!

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.

We were delighted with the dental service provided by the Smile New York Outreach dental team. Our students were so excited to go to the dentist and the team members were very patient and skillful in working with the children’s nerves and anxiety.

The Smile New York Outreach Dental Team was professional and friendly. They made the students feel at ease. They worked so efficiently it was like they were not even here. This was a wonderful service for our students and I look forward to having the team back. Thank you.
Andrea Maffeo Principal, PS 46
This is a wonderful service. So many of our students were seen and look forward to the next time they come. They are able to be professional and efficient on an auditorium stage!
Jeanna Dickerson Prinicpal, PS 138 The Samuel Randall School
I simply love this! The team was terrific with our students. Some of our students never experienced being seen by a dentist, so this was a real milestone for them! The team made them aware of the procedures and made them as comfortable as possible! Others have experienced these visits and were more comfortable and knew what to expect. Can we have you as our dental partners for next school year?
Diane Lawrence Dental Coordinator, P.S. 243/The Weeksville School

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.
