About Big Smiles
Big Smiles is the nation's leading in-school dental program founded almost two decades ago by two moms, who are also dentists. The founders saw a tremendous need among underserved school‑aged children who did not have easy access to dental care and often suffered from poor oral hygiene, tooth decay, pain, and associated medical problems. Knowing that many parents could not take their children to the dentist due to work or transportation challenges, they sought to bring the care to the school. Today, through its dental partners, Big Smiles provides preventative and restorative care to approximately 500,000 children per year.
Tooth decay is the most common, and preventable disease among children, more common than asthma. Over 51 million school hours are lost each year due to oral health–related issues. 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. If portable equipment is used, classrooms, auditoriums or other school venues are transformed into fully functional dental offices for the day. Big Smiles is currently active in 20 states and has ongoing strategic partnerships with over 8,000 school districts, including 21 of the 25 largest districts in the country. We are always looking for caring, compassionate professionals to join our team and play their part in making a difference in the lives of today’s underserved children.
