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
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.
Jacqueline Reinier Parent Coordinator, P.S. 230K
From the beginning to the very end, the staff has been awesome! They have made our students feel at ease about going to the dentist and also further installed good hygiene in our children. Looking forward to having them come out again!
Koren Small Parent Coordinator, The Bay School PS/MS 105
The team was wonderful. Very professional, friendly and easy to work with. They made the experience a good one for the children and me as well. Thank you!
Tammy Zaccheo Parent Coordinator, PS 152
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.

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!!!

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.

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.
