The benefit to the schools is less missed school days for children due to dental appointments, and dental pain. On average, elementary school students without dental care miss 2.1 days of school per year due to oral health problems.
According to the Department of Health Care Services, only about 44% of the children who are eligible to receive dental services received an annual dental visit in 2014. The major reason for this is the lack of dentists who provide dental care to Medi-Cal insured children.
Bright Light Dental resolves this issue by coming directly to the schools to provide dental care to ALL Children, even children with no dental insurance.
We have portable dental equipment that we bring to your school and set it up in a classroom, gym, library or any available room.
We stay for the day, or multiple days if needed, to treat as many students as we can. We return to your school every 6 months for routine care.
We accept Medi-Cal for the children who have it, and can treat children without any dental insurance for free. We also accept some private insurances.
