Healthy Smiles for ME is a dedicated nonprofit organization founded in 2009 with a mission to improve the
oral health of children in Maine. The organization operates as a clinic that focuses on providing essential dental services, particularly to children who may not have access due to financial constraints. The core of their mission is to ensure every child in the state has access to emergency and restorative
dental care.
Healthy Smiles for ME helps families navigate the process of obtaining dental care, providing assistance to those who are uninsured or do not qualify for other programs like MaineCare. They offer reduced-rate dental services and work to connect families with the care they need. Beyond direct treatment, the organization is deeply committed to preventative care and oral health education. They provide educational programs to teach children and families about proper oral hygiene habits, which is crucial for preventing future dental issues.
The organization's physical location is at 39 Breton Ln, Oxford, ME 04270, and their website, healthysmiles4me.org, serves as a hub for information, donations, and resources. They often engage in community outreach and fundraising events to support their programs and services, which include oral health education and access to dental care. The organization's focus on children and its nonprofit status distinguish it from a standard private dental practice, making it a vital resource for families in Maine.
