MORE HEALTH SMILES - Dental Education ProgramMORE HEALTHY SMILES is dental education in a box allowing health educators, hygienists, dentists, nurses & other professionals to go into schools & community with a turn-key program.

Give Kids a Smile® - Children's Dental Access ProgramNational Give Kids A Smile!® is an annual one-day volunteer event that provides education, preventive and restorative services to children from low-income families.

Many children in Florida aren't smiling because of UNTRATED TOOTH DECAY. It's painful, unsightly and makes it hard for kids to eat, sleep and pay attention in school. DENTISTS WANT TO BE PART OF THE SOLUTION.

During the month of February, join Dentists, Hygienists, dental assistants and other healthcare professionals in Florida to help PROVIDE FREE ORAL HEALTH SERVICES TO QUALIFYING CHILDREN. We hope you will join in for 2014.

* each county has their own program.
* Give Kids A Smile and the Give Kids A Smile Logo are registered service marks of the American Dental Association.
