The service was great. The students are always excited to see the dentist. They (Dentist/technicians) explained to the students how to take care of their teeth.

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.

This is an EXCELLENT program, especially for young children who haven’t visited a dentist yet.
Yolanda Parent Coordinator, P.S. 63 Q
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.
Zulma Tanzer Assistant Principal, PS 150Q
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
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
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!

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.
