An important message from Maryjane Puffer, Executive Director, Los Angeles Trust for Children’s Health.
The ladies from the program are fabulous! The kids love going to the dentist when they come, and everyone is smiling and happy! Kelli Sanders, Health Aide
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
We enjoyed having Smile Pennsylvania at our school. The team provides a much needed service to the children in our school. Andrea McCoy, Certified School Nurse Stephen Girard Elementary School
We are so thankful for the wonderful dental care your organization provides to our students. Many would not receive any dental care if it were not for the Mobile Dentists. Elizabeth J. Hollingsworth, RN, School Nurse
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! Joanne Conn, School Nurse
They did amazing! We had students who refused to open their mouths when they went to the dentist with their family that let the Smile Programs dentist examine their teeth here at the school. Sarah Dean, School Nurse Franklin Learning Center
This program is something we have needed for a long time. They do excellent work! Jenny Saylor Farmer, FRYSC Coordinator Cumberland Elementary FRYSC
It is a great way to give the children dental service at no cost to parents, because sometimes our parents don’t have the money, nor the transportation to get them to the dentist. Sonia De La Torre, SAA
Dr. Cindy and Dawn are wonderful! They are great at easing the minds of the frightened kids. Jennifer Vaughn, District Nurse
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
I was very pleased with the professionalism of the team. They were very caring and it was the best dental experience. Keep up the outstanding work! Kate Haenig, Social Worker
The team is always great and very happy to be here. We love having them here! Renee Johnson, Health Tech
The staff were very efficient and organized, and the program ran smoothly. Cynthia H. Morgan, Principal Edgemont Primary
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
The staff was always wonderful, very professional, and kind to everyone. I wouldn’t have any other business come to my school to provide this service. Your company beats my expectations by a mile! I was able to call (daily almost) and get the answers I needed with no hassle. Suzie was wonderful, very attentive, very knowledgeable, and just overall wonderful! The past two years have been great with the Mobile Dentist Program, and I look forward to many more. Jacilyn Habura, Secretary/Health Aide
Very flexible with our special needs students! Margie Rossander, RN, School Nurse Canterbury Elementary
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
This is a wonderful service you offer to students, and is very professional and reliable. Thanks so much! Shelly Bird, Secretary Creekview Elementary School
I always like having the Mobile Dentists come to my school, because I am so amazed they are able to see all our little ones and we never have a screaming episode. Everyone is always looking forward to seeing the Dentist. I never have parents displeased with the services or how they were conducted. I wish you would consider giving us one day of adult check ups! Yvette Franklin, Health Professional
Dr. Ash and her team have a fabulous rapport with our children, and explain everything at their level so they understand the procedures. No fear or crying at all, and for K-2, that’s saying something! We really love this service and it is much needed in our community. Thank You! Michelle Hagglund, Registered Nurse
The staff was so efficient and did a great job with our kids! Abby Phillips, Health Clerk
Wonderful team to work with! Chris James, RN, School Nurse
You are all great! Sue Kruckman, School Nurse
Excellent service and “bedside manner”. Every person in the dental team was awesome. Blair, Registered Nurse
The dentist and hygienists were very thorough seeing students. Many students told the nurse how nice they were and it “didn’t hurt at all!” They took time with the students and were not trying to hurry them out the door. Our students had many dental issues…having this service available has been wonderful! We even had students from other schools in our district the dentist previously saw that were having issues. They immediately saw the student and addressed the concern! Rachel Lee, RN, School Nurse
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
I can’t say enough about your staff! They are so wonderful to our parents and students here at Collins! They are a joy to work with! Kathy Oehler, FRC Coordinator
I am very pleased that some of our students opted to participate because this very well may be the only dental visit they get. Thank you! Brittani Christman, School Nurse River Elementary
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
Thank you to the entire dental team for the wonderful service provided to our students. From start to finish everything was professional and organized. This was my first time having the Mobile Dentists at our school, and the feedback received from students, parents, and school staff was extremely positive. We are looking forward to having you back. Nadine Rickards, School Nurse
The program is wonderful and the parents and students are very happy with the program. Thank you for doing this! Joyce Batts, Parent Coordinator P.S. 298
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
Everyone was wonderful and the dentists were friendly and professional. Therese Gallagher, Family Nurse Practitioner
Working with the staff at the Mobile Dentists office was very easy. They were very accommodating when choosing a visit date and were very efficient while processing the students’ permission forms. The staff from the Little Smiles New Jersey program that came to Mastery McGraw Elementary School were wonderful. They were prompt with their arrival and were very professional and friendly with the students and staff at our school. They saw 22 students at the visit and each student benefited from the work the dentist and dental hygienist did on their teeth. We have already scheduled our next visit for the fall and cannot wait to have the mobile dentists back at McGraw to see and help more of our students. Thank you! Chelsea Trach RN, BSN, School Nurse
Thank you for your services. Unfortunately, some of our children would not receive the dental attention that is needed if it was not for your program. Vicki Haney, LPN Peters Elementary School
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
The staff worked extremely well with our 3-5 year old students and our autistic students. They are always pleasant, well organized, and efficient! Mary Tolmie, MSN, RN, CSN, School Nurse
We are very thankful for your program. We have several students who would not see a dentist if you did not come to our school. Thank you very much! Gina Berry, Clinic Assistant
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 put the students at ease. The program helps to reduce the time students have to miss school and parents miss work. Beverly L. Taylor, CHN
This is such a wonderful program…the children ask frequently when the dentist is coming back! We are such a rural area that the closest dental facility that accepts some insurance programs is 90 minutes away. That means a full day of missed work for the parent, a full day of missed school for the student, and a very long drive. Thank you so much! Susan O’Bier, RN Northumberland Elementary School
Excellent, friendly, professional staff. Works well with our special needs students. Love them all! Kim Dougherty, RN, School Nurse
Love the team of Joi, Dr. King, and Pam….and others! You guys rock! So great with the students! Teresa Pratt, District Nurse
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
Having the dental team here at the high school for a day was wonderful. Thank you! Patty Skinner, School Nurse Trimble High School
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! Marynan Mudd, Family Resource Center Coordinator
I have worked with Smile Programs for several years now and can’t say enough good about your program. Carol Halpin, School Nurse
I’d like to compliment all of your dental team for the excellent service they provided to our kids. Thank you! Juliana Reyes, Family Resource Coordinator Graves County Central Elementary School
The services were absolutely beneficial for my school, and assisting my families with obtaining the services needed. I also thought the tooth brushing demonstration was great! Stephanie L. Thomas, CHN/RN
Extremely friendly staff, and the students loved their toothbrushes! Susan Avery, Principal Braceville Elementary School
