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
The team is phenomenal and I have already recommended this service to PA 208, who is in our building.
Valerie Babb Hiring and Family Engagement Manager, Harlem Link Charter School
The teams professionalism and nurturing and caring demeanor towards our students put them at ease and made it an enjoyable visit.
Several parents stated they were ecstatic about the program because it took a lot off of their minds, having a dentist in their school.
Thank you for turning an apprehensive situation into a pleasant one.
Robyn Hawkins-Julian Parent Coordinator, Ernest S. Jenkyns, PS 202
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.

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.
