On Tuesday, October 7th, J-HES provided a Miles for Smiles Mobile Dental Visit under the care of Dr. Jackson, DDS. The Miles for Smiles Team of Shreveport was able to serve 40+ students, which 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 the Living Well Foundation (LWF) for making this possible. As previously published, the school was awarded a competitive grant in the amount of $6,000 dollars.
