February is National Children’s Dental Health Month, and we’re shining a spotlight on a program that keeps the smiles going long after the month ends. 🦷💙

Founded by NJDA Immediate Past-President Dr. Elisa Velazquez, Share A Smile helps children seen at Give Kids A Smile events in February receive the follow-up care they need. The program is administered by the NJ Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and the NJ Hygiene Program to ensure no child falls through the cracks.

Share A Smile is seeking volunteer dentists to provide comprehensive care for at least ONE child—at no charge—between February and May 2026.

One child. One commitment. A lifetime impact.
