What Schools Are Saying About Us

Manchester Avenue 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

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

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

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

Always a great experience!

Mike Honemann, Director

The staff was so efficient and did a great job with our kids!

Abby Phillips, Health Clerk

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

Brenda Hanson, LVN

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

Staff arrived promptly, set up quickly, and were conscientious about not having students out of class any longer than necessary. They were very friendly and very professional.

Tracy McKinney, LPN, School Nurse Seymour Middle School

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.

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!

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!”.

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

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!

This is a very important program for public schools!

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 dentists who come are great. They are warm and welcoming to our students, and our students love them! Thank you for always ensuring our visits run smoothly.

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

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

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

This is a wonderful service you offer to students, and is very professional and reliable. Thanks so much!

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!

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

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

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

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

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 ES

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

The staff is very friendly and provides a great service to our students.

Lori Bradigan, LPN Oaklyn Elementary

Great job Big Smiles Dental!

D. Williams, Coordinator

The team took extra time with a special needs student that I didn’t think would cooperate. They were able to reassure her, and provided care quickly and painlessly.

Cindy, School Nurse

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

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

Steve Basnight, Principal

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 mobile dentist provided excellent service to the students at Southeast Elementary. The team was very kid friendly, and made the process fun for the kids. Everyone walked out with a smile! We look forward to next year.

Araceli McBeth, Health Aide Southeast Elementary School

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

Thank you for this much needed service for the students!

Marie Newton, RN, School Nurse

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!

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!

Our parents are happy and completely satisfied with your program. They are impressed with the way your staff makes our students feel at ease.
