Give Kids a Smile Day is taking place across Michigan once again this year. It is estimated more than 300 dentists will be taking part in a variety of dental treatment and educational activities.
Some dentists have scheduled and held Give Kids a Smile events prior to the official Give Kids a Smile Day of Feb. 4. The MDA is expecting large- and small-scale activities, including classroom presentations and comprehensive treatment for children in clinics and the dental school at the University of Michigan. Click the links as they appear below to view photos and information from 2011 Give Kids a Smile events.
Michigan dentists participate in a variety of state and community programs that offer low-cost or free dental services to individuals in need. These programs offer help to seniors, low-income individuals, patients on Medicaid, disabled, handicapped or institutionalized individuals, children, and others.
For additional information on the access to care issue, read the report, “A United Voice for Oral Health,” issued by Michigan Access to Oral Health Care Work Group. It reflects the thinking of the broadest group yet assembled to tackle the access problem. Community Dental Programs
