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

Norma Rosario Pupil Secretary, Family Life Academy Charter school 3
Smile New York Outreach has surpassed my expectations. Their professionalism and their warmth toward our students is wonderful. I also welcome their outreach to parents for follow up. This year we had cavities filled as well which has helped our families and their children tremendously. I have recommended them to other communities school and will continue to do so.
Maria Brancale Community School Director, PS 78
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
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.

Our Academy of Medical student ambassadors and the Dental team worked together making certain students were on time and the necessary documentation was received. Next year we hope to have more students participate in this great program.

Everyone was courteous and professional. The team was able to finish early and they were great with the children. Thank you for another great experience.

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.
