Parents, keep your children healthy with in-school dental care.
What Our School Partners Are Saying...
We had a great experience with the service and look forward to continuing our partnership. Many families found out about their child’s dental needs from this experience. Families really loved having this program in the school as the first experience a child has with a dentist.
Nicolas Cracco Assistant Principal, PS 185
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!

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!!!

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.
