An important message from Maryjane Puffer, Executive Director, Los Angeles Trust for Children’s Health.
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
The dental team was on time, friendly, and professional.
Karen Richardson, RN, CHN Wheatley Education Campus

Sharon Chura, Certified School Nurse Purchase Line School District
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
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
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 an excellent service for students and parents.
Tony Reece, School Finance Officer/School Records Data Management Mountain Park Elementary School

Very flexible with our special needs students!
Margie Rossander, RN, School Nurse Canterbury Elementary
Friendly staff and great service. A wonderful program that supports our community with a great smile.
Nicolas Perez, Principal Cheltenham Elementary
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
As always, we are very happy with your service. Your friendliness and professionalism is outstanding!
Mary Beth Delano, Registered Nurse Cople Elementary
Thank you for this much needed service for the students!

Friendly and professional!

Great job Big Smiles Dental!
D. Williams, Coordinator
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
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
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 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 staff worked extremely well with our 3-5 year old students and our autistic students. They are always pleasant, well organized, and efficient!
Mary Tolmie, MSN, RN, CSN, School Nurse
The staff put the students at ease. The program helps to reduce the time students have to miss school and parents miss work.
Beverly L. Taylor, CHN
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
The staff is very professional and compassionate, which is very important to the young students we serve.

Shelly Bird, Secretary Creekview Elementary School
We are VERY pleased to be able to offer your services to our students. Thank you so much!
Angela Vass, RN Carroll County
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
Always a pleasure to deal with and they always do a wonderful job!

Marquita Hall, 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
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
