Tooth Truck

A NOTE FROM THE NURSE

January 19, 2018

Dear Parent or Guardian,

We are pleased to announce the Tooth Truck has the opportunity to treat eligible
children at our site in the coming weeks. The Tooth Truck provides comprehensive
treatment, from cleanings and x-rays, to repairing cavities at no charge for
qualifying families. Requirements for being seen and treated on the Tooth Truck
are:
-Qualify for the free and reduced lunch program at school
-Cannot be an established patient of a local dentist
-Cannot have private dental insurance
-Must complete a Tooth Truck application form
The Tooth Truck treats Medicaid-eligible and uninsured children from ages 3-18
years. Children seen last year are not eligible for a routine check up but should
apply if there is a new dental concern.
You may call your school and request an application form. Please complete
an application form and return to the school nurse as soon as possible.
The Tooth Truck staff will be scheduling students very soon.

Thank You,

Your School Nurse
