Are:Smile Programs is the nation's leading in-school dental program
founded almost two decades ago by two moms, who happen to also be
dentists. The founders saw a tremendous need among underserved
school aged children who did not have easy access to dental care
and who 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 issues including time
off from work and transportation challenges, they sought to bring
the care to the need. Today, through its dental partners, Smile
Programs 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. In fact, each year, over 51 million school hours are lost
due to oral health related issues.Smile Programs 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, auditoriums or other school venues are literally
transformed into fully functional dental offices for the day. Our
expertise, obtained through years of experience bringing mobile
dental care to schools, as well as through our highly qualified
staff, enables us to bring exceptional care with minimal disruption
to the normal school routine.Smile Programs is currently active in
20 states and has ongoing strategic partnerships with over 8,000
school districts, including 21 of the 25 largest school districts
in the country.Given the ongoing lack of access for many
underserved children across the country, our services are in great
demand and 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.Rewarding
Work. Competitive Compensation. Smile Programs.Smile Programs is an
Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer. All qualified
applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard
to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, gender
identity, sexual orientation or protected veteran status.
