An important message from Maryjane Puffer, Executive Director, Los Angeles Trust for Children’s Health.
Manchester Avenue Elementary,
Our parents are happy and completely satisfied with your program. They are impressed with the way your staff makes our students feel at ease.
Dolores Ramirez, Community Liasion
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
It’s a great service, and we love having the dental team come.
Brenda Hanson, LVN
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
Thanks again for coming and seeing our students! We appreciate the professionalism, kind words, and dental teaching you provided them! The program is so easy to work with and all went well and ran smoothly!
Sharon Chura, Certified School Nurse Purchase Line School District
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
The program is great, and really helps a lot of families which cannot get these services, or never thought to get these services done.
Gladys Fonua, Administrative Assistant
I absolutely love that you are able to provide this service during normal school hours, ensuring our scholars are being seen and their dental needs cared for. Every year, your staff is always kind and efficient!
Leah Martello, Dean of Scholars
I love that I can offer this program to my students and their families. Everyone within the organization is friendly and helpful making the service very easy to set up for my school. The clinical staff that treat the kids are amazingly patient and understanding, especially with my fidgety and nervous kiddos. This program exceeds all expectations!
Cara Dalton, School Nurse Hardy Elementary School
Professional, friendly, and wonderful service! That’s my experience with Mobile Dentists.
Johnny Raynor, BSN, RN, EMT-P, CSN, School Nurse
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
The team was excellent with the kids, and they met and exceeded my expectations by doing everything they promised. The teachers also agree that this is a valuable service that we should continue to offer. We’re looking forward to making this a permanent program and growing it in the future.
Dan Goetz, RN, Nurse
It is a pleasure to work with an efficient and caring team!
Saundra L. Davis, RN, School Nurse Lincoln Elementary School
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 School
We are so fortunate to be able to participate in this much needed program. Thank you!
Sandy Marsh, Coordinator
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
We love having you come to our school. Your staff is great!
Mandy Powell, Secretary Centennial Elementary School
Thank you for your excellent service to our school community!

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
The dental team was on time, friendly, and professional.
Karen Richardson, RN, CHN Wheatley Education Campus
The ladies from the program are fabulous! The kids love going to the dentist when they come, and everyone is smiling and happy!

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!

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
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
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 dentist and assistants were awesome! Go with the flow kind of team! They worked non-stop until the job was done. Thank you for coming to our school!
Stephanie Keller, RN, BSN, School Nurse Mast Community Charter School II
Wonderful team to work with!
Chris James, RN, School 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
Great on-site team, professional, timely, and ready to assist the audience. Wonderful suggestions offered for next year’s event. Thank you again for providing screenings to the children of our participants; we greatly appreciated you joining us!
Kim Price, Community Health Educator, Blue Cross Complete of Michigan
Wonderful program, and we hope to have more student participation next year. Very caring staff!
Bonnie Rink, Health Aide
The Smile Illinois mobile dentists is an excellent program! The dentist and staff are so good at what they do, and are wonderful with the kids. I think this is a wonderful program that benefits our students a great deal!
Gina VanCleave, RN, BSN
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 Big Smiles dental services were excellent. The dental team worked very efficiently and diligently when providing services to our students. I was impressed with the services provided to students on the spot in the school setting.
Remona C. Sands, Family Resource Center Coordinator
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
The Smile Programs Dental Program is great! This program helps children to be relaxed about seeing the dentist and taking care of their teeth. The dental teams work well together and are supportive of each other. I like this program and wish you much success with helping children and our local school district.
Brigitte James, Registrar Langdon Elementary School
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
As always, we are very happy with your service. Your friendliness and professionalism is outstanding!
Mary Beth Delano, Registered Nurse Cople Elementary
The staff is always professional, nice, and friendly. I always enjoy having them.
Charlotte Morris, School Nurse
I can only say great things about Sherrie. She is awesome with the clients here, and all of the clients ask if she will be returning in 6 months. Dr. Reisinger is great also, and will see all of the clients scheduled that day even if he has over 100 sealants. The restorative team is great also.
Shalonda Allen, Patient Care Coordinator
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
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 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
The staff was incredibly friendly and efficient, and they showed up on time and prepared to work each day they visited us at HCP. Thank you!
