Big Smiles Dentist is Coming to Camarena
A form should have come home this week from “Big Smiles” dentist. They are coming to Camarena on March 6, 2025 and offering dental services for our students. The date has been changed from March 7 to March 6, 2025. If you would like your child to see a dentist, please complete and return the form or register at https://www.myschooldentist.com/
News from Big Smiles: We know that parents often find taking their children to the dentist to be a challenge due a variety of issues including transportation and having to take time off from work. That’s why so many parents tell us how much they appreciate the ease and convenience of the in-school dentist, knowing that their children’s teeth are being kept healthy. Plus, kids are more comfortable seeing the dentist in the comfort and familiar surroundings of their school.
We gladly accept Medicaid and CHIP as well as private insurance which almost always pay for 100% of treatment, so there is NO COST TO YOUR PARENTS. In addition, we offer a highly discounted self-pay option. For those without insurance or the means to pay, we are pleased to offer a grant program. NO CHILD IS TURNED AWAY DUE TO AN INABILITY TO PAY.
