An important message from Maryjane Puffer, Executive Director, Los Angeles Trust for Children’s Health.
Manchester Avenue Elementary,
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
Professional, friendly, and wonderful service! That’s my experience with Mobile Dentists.
Johnny Raynor, BSN, RN, EMT-P, CSN, School Nurse
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
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

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

Angela Vass, RN Carroll County
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 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 dentist and dental staff were very kind, gentle, sweet, and patient with all our students. They arrived on time every day and were very happy to be in our school providing services to the students. They were honest, informative, and helpful. They told the students step by step what they were going to do before using any of their equipment, and asked the students if they had any questions. Their professionalism, patience, and knowledge helped the students with their fears. At the end of the visit, everyone went home with a brand new tooth brush, sticker, and copy of the work that was done on their teeth. It was a pleasure to have them!
Ximena Salvador, School Liaison
Excellent service to our students!
Dr. Beverley Martin, Assistant Principal
Great job Big Smiles Dental!
D. Williams, Coordinator
Your staff was really kid friendly! For some children this was their first experience with the dentist and the Smile Pennsylvania dental team really gave our children excellent dental services. Stephen Girard Elementary School in Philadelphia looks forward to your visits in the future.
Andrea McCoy, CSN, BSN, MHed, School Nurse
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
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
Very flexible with our special needs students!
Margie Rossander, RN, School Nurse Canterbury Elementary
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
The Mobile Dentist program continues to impress me every year. The office staff does an amazing job taking care of all the details. The dental team is professional and so easy to work with. They are EXCELLENT with our students. We are so happy about the restorative care that is now available as well. We look forward to your visits. You are making a huge difference in the lives of our students. Thank you!
Joanne Witts, RN, District Nurse
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
This was our first visit from the Smile Programs team and we were extremely pleased with the services we received. The team was on time, professional, patient, and kind with our children. I am looking forward to our 6 month follow up and hope that our participation will continue to increase.
Wendy Adams, LPN, Health Services Coordinator
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
This program goes above and beyond, and they are professional and compassionate about what they do. We are grateful for this program!
Tammy Carey, Nurse
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!
Stephanie L. Thomas, CHN/RN
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 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
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
Our parents are happy and completely satisfied with your program. They are impressed with the way your staff makes our students feel at ease.
Dolores Ramirez, Community Liasion
We loved the team that came! They truly sought to serve kids well, and worked hard to make sure everyone received excellent serve.
Kalie George, Executive Director
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
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
Excellent service! Thank You!
Kathleen Perry, RN, School Nurse
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
Extremely friendly staff, and the students loved their toothbrushes!
Susan Avery, Principal Braceville 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
The staff is very friendly and provides a great service to our students.
Lori Bradigan, LPN Oaklyn Elementary
Wonderful, kind, fast and efficient!
Holly Avery, Administrative Assistant Whitehall Shoreline Elementary School
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
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
Wonderful program, and we hope to have more student participation next year. Very caring staff!
Bonnie Rink, Health Aide
It is always a pleasure to have your services and help the kids of Baltimore City. I am grateful to know that an organization such as yours will provide a much needed dental health care need, now and in the future.
