Thank you to everyone in our community who helped us celebrate ! 🪥🦷

At St. David’s Foundation, we’re proud to operate the largest charity-based mobile dental program in the country, providing free, high-quality dental care to students at Title I elementary schools across Central Texas.

Throughout February, our clinical teams expanded services to reach even more children across the region — collaborating with four Child Inc. Head Start centers to promote healthy smiles for our youngest patients. Our dental team screened 105 children, provided oral health education to nearly 180 students, and shared essential tips on brushing, healthy eating, and the importance of visiting the dentist.

Austin Mayor Kirk Watson also stopped by one of our Mobile Dental Clinics at Norman-Sims Elementary School to show support for our Dental Program and help raise awareness about the importance of healthy oral hygiene and access to dental care in our community.

In February alone, our Dental Program served 780 patients between the ages of 3 and 13 across seven schools in Round Rock ISD, Austin ISD, Del Valle Independent School District, and Manor ISD — reaching families from 41 different ZIP codes. In total, the Foundation provided an estimated $927,517 in dental services, reflecting the meaningful impact and measurable difference we continue to make in Central Texas.

Thank you to our incredible staff and community partners who make this work possible!

El Programa Dental de St. David’s Foundation trae atención dental gratuita directamente a escuelas primarias “Title I” en el Centro de Texas. Al llevar nuestros servicios al lugar donde se encuentran los niños, eliminamos barreras de acceso a la atención dental y los preparamos para toda una vida de sonrisas saludables.

En honor al Mes Nacional de la Salud Dental Infantil, Erica Burgos, asistente dental del programa, nos comparte los tres consejos más importantes para la salud bucal. Y recuerda: la salud bucal es esencial para el bienestar general.

¡Por sonrisas más brillantes y saludables durante todo el mes!

February is National Children’s Dental Health Month, an opportunity to raise awareness of the importance of preventative dental care and promote good oral hygiene among kids. However, for St. David’s Foundation, a commitment to children’s dental health extends year-round.

The St. David’s Foundation Dental Program operates the largest charity-based mobile dental program in the country, providing free, high-quality dental care to students in Title 1 elementary schools across Central Texas.

10-year-old Caiden was one of thousands of children whose smiles were brightened by the Foundation’s dedicated dental team. Caiden, a fourth grader at Gilbert Elementary School in Del Valle, TX, 30 minutes east of downtown Austin, dreams of becoming a scientist, teacher, or YouTuber. Through the Dental Program, he received specialized services through St. David’s Foundation's Complex Care Program, which partners with organizations to provide advanced care when needed.

Caiden’s mother, Laurie, also expressed gratitude for the program’s focus on education. “It was an eye-opening experience for Caiden, now he understands that oral health impacts not just your permanent teeth, but your whole body.”

“I thought it would just be a basic exam, but I was surprised and pleased by the comprehensive services Caiden received,” said Laurie. “It was so convenient because I didn’t have to take time off work; having Caiden’s care provided at school made a huge difference for our family.”
