How it Works
We will have a mobile unit set up with an unused classroom. A state licensed dentist will regularly check your child’s mouth & teeth, as well as provide a cleaning, x-rays as necessary, fluoride treatment and apply sealants, as needed. Additional care, such as fillings, may also be provided. A dental report card will be sent home with your child. Includes initial dental care & follow-up visits.

Parent Benefits
- Parents save both time and money – No lost wages or leave for taking time off from work to take the child to the dentist. Parents of children in need can least afford to take time off.
- Comfort in knowing their child is receiving quality dental care from a respected health provider in the community.
- Regular parental notification of child’s oral health condition – dental services receive with dental referrals are needed and with good communication and follow up.
School Benefits
- Less time out of the classroom = more instruction = better grades = better test scores.
- School, administrators, and teachers are partners to teach good oral health which contributes to overall good health.
