Big Smiles Dental has been cancelled through the remainder of the 2019-20 school year.

Make sure your child is brushing their teeth well at least twice a day. They also should be using dental floss daily to help maintain optimal dental health while we cannot provide dental services at school.

Consent forms will be sent home with your student. You can also sign up online at: Click here for Mary Buren Consent Form

Dental care is usually at no cost to you. All insurance is accepted including Medicaid and CHIP. A low cost self-pay option is available for those without insurance and some students will be eligible to receive services completely free of cost.

Please fill out your consent form as completely as possible. If you need assistance please contact the Health Office for assistance.

Convenient and comfortable

Our in-school dental program saves you time and provides a safe and comfortable place for your child to receive gentle dental care from licensed local professionals. Dental care includes a complete dental exam, x-rays, cleaning, fluoride and sealants when necessary, and in some cases, restorative care such as fillings.

Dental care for a healthy life

Children who see a dentist regularly may have fewer health issues like:
 

• Early tooth loss due to dental decay
• Gum disease
• Heart disease
• Impaired speech development

Help keep your child healthy, in school and learning.

If your child is routinely seeing their own dentist and has seen the dentist in the past 6 months they will not be eligible to be seen by Big Smiles. That is great that they already are having their oral healthcare being tended to. If you don't know when your student was last seen please complete the consent and Big Smiles will check to see if they are eligible.
