The Give Kids A Smile® (GKAS) program, launched nationally in 2003, provides underserved children with free oral health care. Each year approximately 6,500 dentists and 30,000 dental team members volunteer at local GKAS events to provide free oral health education, screenings, preventive and restorative treatment to over 300,000 children nationwide.

Each year, the San Diego County Dental Foundation partners with local dentists and community clinics to provide free oral health care to hundreds of kids in our region.
