Big Smiles is returning to Elk Hills School District on May 15th and 16th! Please be on the look out for permission slips or go to www.MySchoolDentist.com to sign up. Big Smiles does check-ups, including x-rays, as well as preventative care like cleaning, sealants, and small cavity fillings. You will receive a dental health report card after your child is seen. Please be sure to provide all the requested information in order for your child to be seen. If your child has been seen by a dentist within six months of the visit date they will not be able to be seen by Big Smiles. We are also excited to announce that Big Smiles will be seeing incoming kindergarteners for the 2023-24 school year- so if you have a child who will be starting school next year and you want them to get their required dental screening for school please be sure to sign them up!
