What are Give Kids A Smile Day & Children's Dental Health Month?
Give Kids A Smile Day is a concentrated day during February - Children's Dental Health Month - where dentists throughout the nation provide children with dental education and access to care under one cohesive event. Any donation of time that benefits children can be attributed toward Give Kids A Smile Day (even if it is not on the official date). ANY DAY IN FEBRUARY CAN BE YOUR GIVE KIDS A SMILE DAY! Having all of the efforts concentrated toward one publicized day aids in each dentist's efforts being recognized, helps the access to care problem gain recognition, and allows opportunities for the entire dental community to work together for the sake of children's dental health care.

The NMDA's role in the statewide Give Kids a Smile project is to function as a clearing house and support system for the numerous charitable education, screening, prevention and comprehensive treatment programs throughout the state by having as many of them as possible occur on the same day or month under the same brand. The campaign also provides a framework for identifying, cataloging and recognizing the many access activities-large and small-that take place throughout the year. The NMDA is also working to ensure maximum positive coverage and perception by media, government and opinion leaders and to assist local dental societies and individual dental offices in those efforts.
