Give Kids a Smile Program



The Give Kids a Smile Program is an annual program design to provide dental care to low-income children.  It's the sixth annual project by the Pasco-Hernando Community College dental program and volunteer dentists and hygienists from the community.  Families must meet income criteria (200% of the U.S. Poverty Rate or below, to see the Poverty rates, click here), and children must be ages 6 to 17.

You must pre-qualify, in person, between 5:00 PM and 7:00 PM on one of the following dates:

  •     Tuesday, January 19
  •     Tuesday, January 26
  •     Thursday, January 14
  •     Thursday, January 21
  •     Thursday, January 28
  •     Tuesday, February 2
  •     Thursday, February 4


On Friday, February 12, prequalified children will be seen for a screening, X-rays, a cleaning and sealants if needed.
On Friday, February 26, children may receive follow-up care such as fillings and extractions if needed.
