This program is excellent. All schools should participate. The kids were very excited and some mentioned that the visit to the dentist is not as scary as they thought. Your staff is awesome and caring Our students were very happy.
Zoraida Olivo Operations Manager, Beginning with Children Charter School
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!
Audra Jimenez Director of Counseling and Student Support Services, Storefront Academy Harlem
Excellent program!
Zoraida Olivo Operations Manager, Beginning with Children Charter School
I simply love this! The team was terrific with our students. Some of our students never experienced being seen by a dentist, so this was a real milestone for them! The team made them aware of the procedures and made them as comfortable as possible! Others have experienced these visits and were more comfortable and knew what to expect. Can we have you as our dental partners for next school year?
Diane Lawrence Dental Coordinator, P.S. 243/The Weeksville School
The dentist was very kind, warm and considerate of the needs of the students and made them feel comfortable.
Grace Ruffo Program Coordinator, PS 62 Chester Park
This is a wonderful service. So many of our students were seen and look forward to the next time they come. They are able to be professional and efficient on an auditorium stage!
Jeanna Dickerson Prinicpal, PS 138 The Samuel Randall School
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.
