The Give Kids a Smile program, created by the American Dental Association, is an annual focus of National Children’s Dental Health Month and is observed every year on the first Friday in February. The program was designed to provide education, preventative and restorative oral health care for children.
Last year during Give Kids a Smile, VCU pediatric dental specialists saw 130 patients and provided nearly $59,000 worth of care.
