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.

Excellent job. Keep up the great work!

This is an EXCELLENT program, especially for young children who haven’t visited a dentist yet.
Yolanda Parent Coordinator, P.S. 63 Q
I was very pleased with the service Smile New York Outreach provided to our scholars, and the scholars were happy as well. I have already recommended you to other schools both in and out of our charter network. Thank you for such an amazing service, and I look forward to working with you again soon.

It was wonderful having the dental staff at the school. Everyone was professional and very kind to the children. Nicole was also very helpful with the planning and logistics of the visit.

Smile New York Outreach is a wonderful program, which has really exceeded my expectations. The staff is very professional and helpful. I would definitely recommend this program to other schools. It helps to improve student attendance. I really love this program.
Jean-Marie Blair Parent Coordinator, Community School 300
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.
