An important message from Maryjane Puffer, Executive Director, Los Angeles Trust for Children’s Health.
Thank you for working with our students! Your staff has always been adaptable to the conditions at our school, with a friendly, professional manner. The students who are seen are appreciative of the care you provide. Thanks so much!
Christine Novak, RN, BSN, NCSN, School Nurse New Bern High School
The Big Smiles dental crew were great! They were all terrific with the kids and worked hard to see everyone. They ended up treating 75 of our students that otherwise may not have been to a dentist. There is just no way to express how happy that makes me! I look forward to having them back!
Erin Bonham, RN, School Nurse
I was pleasantly surprised by the comprehensive dental services the Smile Program provided for our students. Services were rendered in a professional manner with few tears and drama. Our students genuinely liked the services and staff. I was most impressed by the manner the staff had with difficult students.
Angela Boone, Family Resource Center Coordinator
The staff and dentist were exceptional with our students. Thank you so very much!
Kat Brook, Administrative Assistant Veritas Academy
I always appreciate timeliness and professionalism, and that is exactly what your service provided for my center.
V. Carter, Administrator Ready 2 Learn Childcare Center
The Mobile Dentists program is such an asset to my students in delivering dental health care, helping to keep absenteeism down, and health habits up! I will definitely have the Mobile Dentists visit our school again!
Chris Musial, MS, RN, NJ-CSN, NCSN, School Nurse
I appreciate the services you provide to our school and children. Some have never been to the dentist, and other dental programs don’t service the whole school population. Thanks again!
Annette M. Scott, RN, BSN, LSN, School Nurse Ironton City Schools
Excellent service and friendly staff! This is a much needed service for our students, and we appreciate the care that you provide for our district!

Joyce Batts, Parent Coordinator P.S. 298
The Smile Program is a wonderful service for students and parents who are on the go and just can’t seem to find enough time in the day to make that most needed dental stop. I would recommend this program to everyone that I know because the staff is very friendly and highly professional at all times. Thanks Smile Programs for servicing our students here at Emerson School. We’re looking forward to your next visit!
Lashunda Harold, Health Clerk
Outstanding service and care for my students, and a great team to work with!
Lisa Fox, School Nurse
The staff is warm and they treat the kids and staff with respect. We love to have the visits from the dental staff.
Elizabeth Shook, Lead School Nurse Madison County
We appreciate the opportunity to work with the Smile Program. The friendly service the team provides helps to fill the gap in access to oral health care for children under age 5 in our community.
Katrina Harwood, WIC Director, Marion Public Health
What a WONDERFUL service for the children in our district. The staff was so friendly and made the children feel safe and comfortable! For many children this was their first time seeing a dentist or having any dental work done and they all did so well, because the dental team was so great. We are looking forward to your return visit.
Jessica Dorsey, BSN, RN, CCRN, CTTS, Southern Local/Miller
We love the Smile Programs dental program. It gives our children who do not have access to good dental care a chance to see a great dentist work. We have many children who have never seen a dentist before. These children now have access to a great service.
Charmaine Linkins, School Nurse William Beanes Elementary School
The team was amazing, and they displayed remarkable patience and kindness to each student. They saw 30 children in our school, some who had never been to the dentist before. The process was well organized, resulting in minimal disruption to the school day. Many thanks!
Summer Piller, School Nurse Westwood Hills Elementary School
The team was wonderful. They worked through their lunch to fit in all my students. The students and parents were so pleased with the dental care. The delivery was organized and effective, and minimally disruptive to the school day. I can’t wait to have them at our school again.
Sarah Kupchick, RN, BSN, CSN
Our Carnell School Family truly appreciated the dental services that you provide to our scholars here at school. Your team works in harmony getting the children screened and then providing the needed services. We hope to continue seeing Mobile Dentists here at Carnell Elementary in the years to come.
Vanessa Faine, School Nurse
This program is something we have needed for a long time. They do excellent work!
Jenny Saylor Farmer, FRYSC Coordinator Cumberland Elementary FRYSC
Your entire staff was excellent, professional, and very pleasant!! It was a joy and an honor to work with them as they provided a valuable service to our students. They were prompt and efficient as we overcame a few challenges. Each one of your staff showed a real love for what they do, and interacted well with our students, especially the challengers.
Saundra L Davis, RN, School Nurse
This was our first visit from the Smile Programs team and we were extremely pleased with the services we received. The team was on time, professional, patient, and kind with our children. I am looking forward to our 6 month follow up and hope that our participation will continue to increase.

What a great program! I would encourage all schools, especially elementary schools, to try it out!
Megan Bounds, RN, Director of Health Services Lima Brighton Elementary School
Very flexible with our special needs students!
Margie Rossander, RN, School Nurse Canterbury Elementary
We are so happy you come here and provide a much needed service. These students would never receive it if the parents had to leave work or get transportation to ascertain care. Thank you so much for your work!
Marilyn Namey, School Nurse Hanover Area High School
You have wonderful, patient staff, that are very friendly. I hope Montlieu’s hospitality was warm and inviting. Thanks for all you do for our students here at the ‘Lieu’!
Marsha C. Erwin, CIS Student Support Specialist Montlieu Academy of Technology/CIS
This dental program runs very independently, with little assistance from school staff. It provides a great service for our students.
Patti Oester, Administrative Assistant Flanagan Grade School
The dental team made the visit extremely easy for the office. They had a list of all the students to be seen with teacher names. All I needed to do was provide a location, room numbers, and a daily schedule. They were all very professional.
Michelle Siegeler, School Administrative Assistant
Thank you for all you do. Some of our children would have no dental care if it weren’t for you.
Carol Dzialak, BSN, RN, School Nurse Xavier School of Excellence
Your dental team is very friendly, hard working and dedicated to helping the children.

This service was wonderful. I would gladly recommend it to any other program. The staff was wonderful and very helpful.
Jessica Davis, RN, RDH, Health and Community Services Manager
The dentist and dental staff were very kind, gentle, sweet, and patient with all our students. They arrived on time every day and were very happy to be in our school providing services to the students. They were honest, informative, and helpful. They told the students step by step what they were going to do before using any of their equipment, and asked the students if they had any questions. Their professionalism, patience, and knowledge helped the students with their fears. At the end of the visit, everyone went home with a brand new tooth brush, sticker, and copy of the work that was done on their teeth. It was a pleasure to have them!
Ximena Salvador, School Liaison
As always, it was a pleasure having the Mobile Dentist team visit our school. Our children certainly are fortunate to have such a wonderful and beneficial opportunity!

The dentists and dental hygienists are always friendly and very patient with the students. They give the kids positive feedback on their behavior during the exam and procedures.
Tara Lovejoy, School Social Worker Morley Stanwood Elementary
Smile New York is a wonderful in-school dental prevention 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. The dental staff was caring, supportive, and professional. Our overall experience was great!
Audra Jimenez, Director of Counseling and Student Support Services
This is a very valuable service to the student’s of Carroll County. The staff is very professional and work very well with the school and scheduling. It is a great program. I am so happy to have this available for our students.

As always, we are very happy with your service. Your friendliness and professionalism is outstanding!

The staff did a wonderful job this year with the elementary and middle school students! They were friendly and very efficient with their time. They treated 40 students, which I believe was a record year for us!
Andrea McGrew, District Nurse
Your dentist and staff are awesome with our special needs children, and are so patient and kind. They made the visit for most less frightening for future exams. One preschool student went back to her class raving about her experience, and stating “They tickled my teeth!”.
M Stevens, RN
A pleasure to work with your staff! They were very accommodating to our classroom schedules. Dr. Jewell and the dental assistants and hygienist were wonderful with the students. We had a great three days, and we were able to let their parents know if further dental care was needed. Thanks so much!

We are VERY pleased to be able to offer your services to our students. Thank you so much!

Professional, friendly, and wonderful service! That’s my experience with Mobile Dentists.
