Giving Back
At Smiles For Kids, giving back isn’t just something we do—it’s who we are. We believe in creating brighter futures for children not only through healthy smiles but also by being active, generous participants in the communities we serve.
From hands-on school presentations to joyful holiday giving, our team proudly partners with families, schools, and organizations year-round to bring education, support, and a little extra cheer.
Community Outreach & Education
We love connecting with children and families in fun, educational ways. Our programs are tailored to each group and designed to be engaging, memorable, and informative. Some of our favorite community outreach efforts include:
School & Daycare Presentations – These lively sessions teach children how to care for their teeth through storytelling, hands-on demos with a giant tooth puppet, fun games, and educational videos starring Blippi. Every child leaves with a goodie bag full of dental hygiene supplies.
School Silent Auctions – Through donating baskets of dental hygiene supplies, electric toothbrushes, stuffed animals, coloring pages and more.
Health Fairs & Festival Booths – Sharing tips and resources at local events, often with giveaways and games.
PTA & Mom Group Talks – Educating parents with practical information on caring for their children’s oral health.
Lunch & Learns for Professionals – Providing pediatric dental education, dental trauma tips and best practices to local sports coaches, medical teams, and private organizations.
Candy Buy-Back Program – Each year after Halloween, we buy back candy from local kids and donate it to Move America Forward, an organization that sends treats (plus toothbrushes!) to deployed troops overseas.
Shadowing Opportunities – We welcome high school students, pre-dental and dental students, and residents to observe and learn alongside our team in a supportive, educational environment.
Holiday Giving
Every December, our team comes together to spread extra holiday cheer. We collect and donate toys, clothing, and other essentials to families in need throughout our community. It’s one of our favorite traditions, and we are always humbled by the joy it brings.
Whether it’s through education, celebration, or support, we’re committed to creating a community of healthy, happy smiles.
Spreading Smiles Together
We love supporting our local schools, families, and organizations through education, donations, and events that promote healthy smiles. If you’re interested in having our team visit your school, participate in a community event, or collaborate on a local initiative, we’d love to hear from you!
Reach out today—we’re always looking for new ways to give back and make a difference!
Smile Reviews
“We have been going here for the past 8 years and have had nothing but positive experiences. They put the patient first and are very professional. It is such a fun experience for my kids and they look forward to their visits. Additionally, Smiles for Kids puts on fun events for their patients throughout the year. All in all, we LOVE this dentist office!”
