The Mobile Dentists program is such an asset to my students in delivering dental health care, helping to keep absenteeism down, and health habits up! I will definitely have the Mobile Dentists visit our school again! Chris Musial, MS, RN, NJ-CSN, NCSN, School Nurse

The team was excellent with the kids, and they met and exceeded my expectations by doing everything they promised.

Your entire staff was excellent, professional, and very pleasant!! It was a joy and an honor to work with them as they provided a valuable service to our students.

Saundra L Davis, RN, School Nurse

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

It’s always a pleasure having your dental team come to our school, they are always pleasant, professional and nice to the children. Susie Rolando, Health Clerk

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 is always professional, nice, and friendly. I always enjoy having them. Charlotte Morris, 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

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

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
