PORT ANGELES — Appointments are being taken now for the SmileMobile, a modern dental office on wheels that brings oral health services to children from families of limited income, which will be at Jefferson Elementary School for two weeks, March 4-15.
“Although dentists and assistants will schedule follow-up visits with clients from the fall SmileMobile visit, we are now taking new appointments,” said Tina Smith-O’Hara, Port Angeles School District spokeswoman.
“Any families interested in the SmileMobile program should call and register their children for open spots as soon as possible.”
The SmileMobile, which began operating in 1995, is a partnership between Washington Dental Service Foundation and Seattle Children’s Hospital. It provides a range of services, from examinations and preventive services to fillings and minor oral surgery.
Discounts
Medicaid coupons are accepted, and a sliding-fee scale based on income is available.
Schedule an appointment before Friday, March 1, by calling SmileMobile staff at 206-418-8970.
