What Is Give Kids A Smile?

Jun 19, 2023

You may have seen our post about Give Kids A Smile, but what is it you may ask? The Give Kids A Smile (GKAS) program provides underserved children free oral health care. Each year approximately 6,500 dentists and 30,000 dental team members volunteer at local GKAS events to provide free oral health education, screenings, preventive and restorative treatment to over 300,000 children. GKAS was launched nationally in 2003 and has been going strong ever since.


We are so happy that our dental team at Live & Smile has decided to participate once again in this fantastic event. We want to bring this event to our community to help children learn and understand the importance of their dental care and how it affects their overall health care. The ADA foundation has been a great guide to helping the children, dentists, and volunteers into making each event better than the last with care packages and other great tools. 


If you know anyone that can benefit from this year’s GKAS, please call our office at (925) 828-5500
