What Schools Are Saying About Us

Manchester Avenue Elementary,

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

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

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

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 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

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

Excellent service for parents; no clinic visits, no time off from their jobs. For the students; great dental care. Thanks a lot Little Smiles New Jersey!

A Bernard, School Nurse

Extremely friendly staff, and the students loved their toothbrushes!

Susan Avery, Principal Braceville Elementary School

We are so fortunate to be able to participate in this much needed program. Thank you!

Sandy Marsh, Coordinator

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

It is always a pleasure working with this program. The staff are very friendly and self sufficient. We’re grateful to be able to provide this service to our students who would otherwise possibly go without dental care.

Tanya, School Nurse Bibich Elementary

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.

Wendy Adams, LPN, Health Services Coordinator

This program is excellent, all schools should participate. The kids were very excited and some mentioned that the visit to the dentist is not as scary as they thought. Your staff is awesome and caring, and our students were very happy.

Zoraida Olivo, Operations Manager

Everyone was courteous and professional. The team was able to finish early and they were great with the children. Thank you for another great experience!

Cortney Williams-Loyd, Site Coordinator Ezra Jack Keats Pre-K Center

The staff was very professional and friendly, and they knew exactly what to do. No complaints on our part. Thank you for your service!

Rosario Gutierrez, School Administrative Assistant

Your dental team is very friendly, hard working, and dedicated to helping the children.

Mary Figueroa, Health Assistant Mary Belle McCorkle Academy of Excellence

Every comment I heard about the program and staff was overwhelmingly positive!

Steve Basnight, Principal

It is a pleasure to work with an efficient and caring team!

Saundra L. Davis, RN, School Nurse Lincoln Elementary School

Mobile Dentists far surpassed my expectations. The staff was warm and gentle with the students, while being highly efficient and effective. I was quite impressed with their speedy set up and compact equipment. Our school is very old, and they were able to utilize a very small space to turn into the “dentist office”. In addition, their office staff took care of everything in terms of paperwork. They verified insurance, contacted parents for more information, and supplied families with grant paperwork. Thank you Mobile Dentists for a wonderful experience; I know we will be seeing you again next year.

Christina Bancroft, BSN, CSN-NJ, School Nurse

Always a great experience!

Mike Honemann, Director

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

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 staff that comes to our school is excellent. They are so good with the kids and our teachers.

Barbara Gray, Clinic Aide Northwestern Elementary School

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

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

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

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

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

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 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

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

Thank you for this much needed service for the students!

Marie Newton, RN, School Nurse

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

Your program is wonderful, and has been coming to my school approximately 4 years. When asked about the program, I recommend it to all NNPS nurses.

Pat Inge, RN, School Nurse

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

It’s a great service, and we love having the dental team come.

Brenda Hanson, LVN

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

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

Your service is most welcome at our school. It provides our children with the care that they would otherwise not receive. THANKS SO MUCH!

Serena Taylor, Secretary Duchesne Elementary School

Excellent, friendly, professional staff. Works well with our special needs students. Love them all!

Kim Dougherty, RN, School Nurse

Dental staff were helpful and pleasant! The office staff remarked about how self sufficient you all were in gathering the necessary students and contacting parents! Thank you!

Jessica G., District Nurse

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

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

Charlotte Morris, 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

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

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

Dr. Cindy and Dawn are wonderful! They are great at easing the minds of the frightened kids.

Jennifer Vaughn, District 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

Excellent service! Thank You!

Kathleen Perry, RN, School Nurse
