Smilemobile provides dental care for children
The Smilemobile will be on site at Cedar Valley Community School Nov. 5-16 for children needing dental care.
The Smilemobile is a mobile dental van that serves low-income children from preschool-aged to 14 years old.
The registration appointments, available all day Nov. 5-6 and the morning of Nov. 7, take 15-30 minutes. The dentist evaluates what work is needed and an appointment is made for that work over the following days. There is no charge for the registration appointment. The Smilemobile accepts state Medicaid coupons and provides very low or no fees on a sliding scale to families without insurance.
Make an appointment by calling Cedar Valley Community School’s Main Office at 425-431-7390. Cedar Valley is at 19200 56th Ave. W. in Lynnwood and is in the Edmonds School District.
