Who We Are
Big Smiles is the nation's leading in-school dental program founded almost two decades ago by two moms who are dentists. The founders saw a tremendous need among underserved school-aged children who did not have easy access to dental care. Today, through its dental partners, Big Smiles provides preventative and restorative care to approximately 500,000 children per year. Big Smiles affiliates with state-licensed dentists, hygienists, and assistants who use state-of-the-art portable equipment to provide all services onsite, directly in the school or in a self-contained mobile dental facility on site at the school. If portable equipment is used, classrooms or other school venues are transformed into fully functional dental offices for the day. Our expertise enables us to bring exceptional care with minimal disruption to the normal school routine.
