On Monday, March 17th,  Jonesboro-Hodge Elementary School provided its 5th Mobile Dental Care Visit under the care of Dr. Alexander with the Miles for Smiles Team of Shreveport servicing roughly 40 students.

The visit included cleanings, x-rays, fluoride treatments, and fillings (as needed). Each student received a Dental Report Card, including follow-up recommendations, and was able to return right back to class! The school will receive a School Dental Report Card in the coming weeks.

Special thanks to Mrs. Alice Prophit, President/CEO of the Living Well Foundation (LWF) for making this possible. As previously published, JHES was earlier awarded a competitive grant in the amount of $6,000 dollars.
