What Schools Are Saying About Us

Excellent service! Thank You! Kathleen Perry, RN, School Nurse

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

Always great with the students, and a pleasure to have. My school really benefits from this program on our campus. Ms. Klein, School Nurse

Your dental team is very friendly, hard working, and dedicated to helping the children. Mary Figueroa, Health Assistant Mary Belle McCorkle Academy of Excellence

They did amazing! We had students who refused to open their mouths when they went to the dentist with their family that let the Smile Programs dentist examine their teeth here at the school. Sarah Dean, School Nurse Franklin Learning Center

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

This program is something we have needed for a long time. They do excellent work! Jenny Saylor Farmer, FRYSC Coordinator Cumberland Elementary FRYSC

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

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

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

I always appreciate timeliness and professionalism, and that is exactly what your service provided for my center. V. Carter, Administrator Ready 2 Learn Childcare Center

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 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

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

This service was one of the best resources that our school could have used. There are always so many students who don’t have a dentist and the parents don’t know where to go to get help for those students who need dental help. It’s so great that the dental team can come to the school to service the students. The school staff and parents thank Smile Programs so much for coming to help our students. Natasha Mayweather, RN, School Nurse Holy Family School

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

The residents are so appreciative of the care they receive. The “team” are true professionals and work extremely well together. Thank you so much for seeing the children! Wayne Rankin, RN, DON Liberty Point Health Care RTC

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

Thank you for coming and providing your services to ensure the dental requirements and health of our children are met at Head Start! Valerie Dierckman, Health Specialist II

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 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! Stephanie Keller, RN, BSN, School Nurse Mast Community Charter School II

Thank you for this much needed service for the students! Marie Newton, RN, 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

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. Karoline Alexander, Community School Director

We have worked with the staff for several years now, and have always been pleased with the service and professionalism displayed. I hope we can keep them for many years to come. LaTonya Maxwell, Family Support Counselor

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 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 service was excellent. Awesome program and staff! We look forward to having Smile Programs here. Lori Rice, RN, School Nurse

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 staff and dentist were exceptional with our students. Thank you so very much! Kat Brook, Administrative Assistant Veritas Academy

You are all great! Sue Kruckman, School Nurse

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

The Smile Programs Dental Program is great! This program helps children to be relaxed about seeing the dentist and taking care of their teeth. The dental teams work well together and are supportive of each other. I like this program and wish you much success with helping children and our local school district. Brigitte James, Registrar Langdon Elementary School

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

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

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!”. M Stevens, RN

Extremely friendly staff, and the students loved their toothbrushes! Susan Avery, Principal Braceville 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

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

I am very pleased that some of our students opted to participate because this very well may be the only dental visit they get. Thank you! Brittani Christman, School Nurse River Elementary

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
