Thanks to the NYU College of Dentistry, WHSAD is now offering free dental services to all students. Services include: examinations, x-rays, cleanings, fluoride treatment, sealants, oral hygiene instruction, fillings, extractions, and some prosthetics (dentures). It’s important for people of all ages to get regular dental checkups, so if you don’t already have a dentist this is a free and easy way to maintain your oral hygiene. The dentists visit in a van you’ll sometimes see parked outside the school, and all students are eligible.
The next visit is February 7th, 2025, and you can speak with Ms. Martinez in room 227 for more information and to pick up permission slips. There will also be another visit February 28th, and every month moving forward.
