Kool Smiles, General Dentistry
for Kids, now offers a convenient location for top-quality dental
care for children in Fall River. Kool Smiles, located at 933 Pleasant
Street in the Flint, provides comprehensive dental care to children and
young adults who are enrolled in MassHealth, CMSP, Delta Dental Premier,
Rhode Island Medicaid and Rite Smiles. Only one in five children in
low-income families receives dental care. As a result, the Surgeon
General has concluded that oral care is the number one unmet healthcare
need for children in this country. Kool Smiles also provides oral health
outreach programs, including no-cost dental screenings and oral health
education in Fall River schools and community organizations. "We want to
work hand-in-hand to ensure that children and their parents are educated
on oral healthcare," stated Community Relations Specialist Dawn Nardi.
For more information about the service, contact
Dawn at 508-742-7362. |
