The Dental Demonstration Project (DDP) was able to contribute in a meaningful way to the annual Give Kids A Smile (GKAS) event hosted by the Suffolk County Dental Society on April 29, 2023.
Out of the nearly 200 children screened at the annual event, twenty percent met the criteria (no dental home, 5+ caries, caries in permanent tooth, active abscess) for further care coordination provided by a Community Dental Health Coordinator (CDHC).
