Don't Take Our Word For It

Hear from the great people we serve

Very flexible with our special needs students!

Margie Rossander, RN School Nurse, Canterbury Elementary

Smile Illinois has been visiting AFL for a number of years now. It gives our students a great opportunity for a dental check up and cleaning. The dental staff are very helpful and professional. Thank you for coming!

Gretchen Hogan RN, School Nurse

This is an excellent service for students and parents.

Tony Reece School Finance Officer/School Records Data Management, Mountain Park Elementary School

he dental team arrived on time and had their equipment set up and ready to go promptly. They were very professional and explained everything that was going to happen to the students before they began their individual tasks. We had some first time students who had never been seen by the program before, and they put those students as well as the others at ease. We would recommend them to any school. They were kind and welcoming to everyone, including staff who stopped in to see how the program works, and volunteers who helped coordinate the flow of students back and forth from the classrooms for treatments.

Patricia Holston, RN School Nurse

The staff is always professional, nice, and friendly. I always enjoy having them.

Charlotte Morris School Nurse

Efficient, friendly, flexible, and prompt! The hygienist came in to greet the office staff first thing in the morning. A few times I walked by the room where they were set up, and for a mobile unit it is an extremely professional set up. It was a pleasant experience for the staff and children. Thank you for a wonderful service to the community and children.

Catherine Aldrich Administrative Assistant

The staff were very efficient and organized, and the program ran smoothly.

Cynthia H. Morgan Principal, Edgemont Primary

Professional and friendly staff that are easy and understanding to work with. Overall, kids are excited when they come.

Tanya Ange School Nurse, John Small Elementary School

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

I love, love, love the Smile Programs staff and service! We have partnered for years, and our satisfaction with the services offered have been consistent. I look forward to working with you all next year.
