What Schools Are Saying About Us

Manchester Avenue Elementary,

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

Brenda Hanson, LVN

Excellent service and friendly staff! This is a much needed service for our students, and we appreciate the care that you provide for our district!

Tina Perry, RN, School 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

The staff is very professional and compassionate, which is very important to the young students we serve.

Donna Davis, Family Advocate

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

I have worked with Smile Programs for several years now and can’t say enough good about your program.

Carol Halpin, School Nurse

Very friendly, efficient staff. They make the children feel comfortable, and they were thorough with the exams and cleanings.

Deb Graham, RN Shelby Hills Early Childhood Center

Always a pleasure to deal with and they always do a wonderful job!

Matty Leocadio, School Nurse, RN, BSN

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

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 service was excellent, and we want to thank you so much for bringing your program into our school. Your staff did an excellent job working with our nurse and office staff.

Catherine Webb, Office Manager

Professional, friendly, and wonderful service! That’s my experience with Mobile Dentists.

Johnny Raynor, BSN, RN, EMT-P, CSN, School Nurse

Wonderful program, and we hope to have more student participation next year. Very caring staff!

Bonnie Rink, Health Aide

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

Charlotte Morris, School Nurse

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

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

This is an excellent service for students and parents.

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

The dentist and hygienist did an amazing job! In addition to the usual dental check-up, they did a lot of health teaching as well. They gave each child individualized attention and made sure each child felt good about him or her self, even if they had a cavity! I really liked that! They were sensitive to student needs and very nice to deal with. We can’t wait for them to come again!

Hagit Stone, School 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

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

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

Sandy Marsh, Coordinator

Wonderful team to work with!

Chris James, RN, School Nurse

We love Big Smiles! So many of our kids would go without any dental care without it. They are wonderful with the kids and we could not be more pleased with the service.

Angel Goldberg, RN, School Nurse Maplewood Richmond Heights Elementary School

I was pleasantly surprised by the comprehensive dental services the Smile Program provided for our students. Services were rendered in a professional manner with few tears and drama. Our students genuinely liked the services and staff. I was most impressed by the manner the staff had with difficult students.

Angela Boone, Family Resource Center Coordinator

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 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 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

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

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

Excellent service and “bedside manner”. Every person in the dental team was awesome.

Blair, Registered Nurse

Thank you for your excellent service to our school community!

Becky Drummond, Elementary Principal

Extremely friendly staff, and the students loved their toothbrushes!

Thank you for all you do. Some of our children would have no dental care if it weren’t for you.
