给孩子一个微笑
Fortis Colleges and Institutes Support 给孩子一个微笑® and National Children’s 牙科 Health Month
成立于2003年, the American 牙科 Association Foundation’s (ADAF) “给孩子一个微笑” program aims to educate the community on the importance of proper pediatric dental health. 全国各地, 牙医, dental 医务人员 and 牙医助理 join others in the community to provide dental services to underserved children and bring a smile to residents in their hometowns.
Each year, Fortis Colleges and Institutes participate by hosting their own 给孩子一个微笑® events. These events and activities provide oral hygiene education and complimentary dental services to underserved children in and around our communities. Activities will vary by location, so please check with your local campus for dates, 时间和具体细节.

更多关于给孩子一个微笑®
2002年，博士. 杰夫·达林和B. Ray Storm held the first 给孩子一个微笑® (GKAS) event in a run-down, soon-to-be-demolished dental clinic in St. 路易, where 15 patient chairs were scraped together to deliver free dental care to nearly 400 children.
The ADA recognized that this grassroots effort had great potential to raise awareness nationally about the importance of oral health to overall health, and about the staggering need that exists among millions of children who go without care. 给孩子一个微笑® evolved into a nationwide program with the collaboration of the ADA, 亨利·史肯, 宝洁公司 & 甘布尔和DEXIS.
今天, 给孩子一个微笑® is the ADA Foundation’s signature access to oral healthcare program for underserved children, with events taking place throughout the year. These events kick off annually on the first Friday in February, which is 给孩子一个微笑® Day. 全国各地, 成千上万的牙医, 医务人员, 牙医助理, and volunteers give their time to provide free oral health education, 放映, and treatment to underserved children. Since 2003, more than 6 million children have been cared for by more than half a million volunteers.
Fortis Colleges and Institutes are proud to be a part of this worthwhile effort and would like to thank everyone who has contributed to 给孩子一个微笑's success!
