How does the program work?

We take pride in maintaining our existing partnerships and continuously strive to establish new ones. Every effort will be made to ensure that there is minimal disruption to your instructional program. After a date has been secured for the event, we deliver all necessary paperwork to your site. We will require your assistance in the distribution and collection of the consent forms.


How are the services covered?

The services provided are typically covered by the child's dental insurance or medicaid program. Parents are required to provide coverage information on consent forms.


What happens on the day of the event?

Our friendly team arrives in the morning and sets up all of our portable equipment inside of your building. All students having a signed consent form will be serviced and each child receives a "goodie bag".


How frequent do you visit?

We typically coordinate our return visit on a 6-month basis.
