Give Kids a Smile – 2026

Give Kids a Smile is an annual event where dental professionals across Minnesota provide free dental care to children from low-income families. The statewide event takes place over two days, from Friday, February 6th, to Saturday, February 7th, though some clinics may have events on alternate dates. 

Services vary by clinic and may include preventive care, such as cleanings, sealants, and fluoride treatment, and restorative care, such as fillings. Information on specific services being offered can be found on the Minnesota Dental Association’s website.

To find a participating dental provider, visit the website or contact United Way 211 by dialing 211, 1-800-543-7709, or texting your zip code to 898211 and a Community Resource Specialist can assist in locating a clinic.

I'm proud and happy to do this work because I don't think anybody should have to feel alone, or that their needs don't matter.
