Karoline Alexander Community School Director, CS 154 The Harriet Tubman Learning Center
Thanks again for choosing our school to bring your services. Your staff was professional, caring & good hearted. The children responded well to them. Hope to see you again next year.
Veronica Echols School Nurse/Wellness Champion, PS/IS 218
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

Grace Ruffo Program Coordinator, PS 62 Chester Park
Our entire school community absolutely loved the program!
Allison Walsh Parent Coordinator, Linden Tree Elementary, PS 567
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?

Jean-Marie Blair Parent Coordinator, Community School 300
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!!!

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.
