Joyce Greene, a local business owner
here in Scarsdale, is always looking for
ways to
help people. She especially
likes to help children.
Once again, Scarsdale Dental Spa is
opening its doors to community children
who don’t currently have access to the
proper dental care. Each year, to honor
National Dental Health Month, through
its “Smiles For Kids” program, the
unique practice provides dental care and
services in addition to education to
those families whose children cannot
afford to visit a dentist regularly.
It is very important to nurture children
in an environment where they feel safe
and comfortable. Effective learning
occurs during activities which children
perceive as fun and non-threatening.
Many adult patients don’t get the care
they need as a result of early childhood
dental experiences.
All throughout the year, parents and
guardians can bring in children to get a
free dental exam, necessary x-rays (all
safe digital system) and comprehensive
cleaning and fluoride treatments. All
these services are provided at no
charge. Families also receive
information which can help them to
maintain good oral health between visits
to the dentist.
“Smiles For Kids” supplies educational
materials on a variety of dental
subjects to parents and guardians, so
community children can get the knowledge
they deserve. The
staff at Scarsdale
Dental Spa also attends area schools
each February to support a grass roots
educational campaign. Many parents have
praised these efforts by visiting our
office themselves and telling our team
what great brushing and eating habits
these school programs have developed in
their children.
The Spa also encourages other
individuals and organizations who wish
to support “Smiles For Kids” to
contribute any available resources to
continue these efforts.
Scarsdale Dental Spa is located in the
Lord & Taylor shopping center at
700
White Plains Road in Scarsdale. The
practice specializes in providing state
of the art clinical and cosmetic
artistry combined with relaxing spa
treatments. It has become Westchester’s
premiere spot for patients who demand
the highest quality dentistry as well as
those patients who have fears that kept
them from getting the dental care they
need.
Please call 914.713.2424 for more
