Nova Southeastern University’s (NSU) College of Dental Medicine will provide limited dental services to South Florida children on Saturday, March 8 from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. as part of Give Kids a Smile (GKAS) Day. Children ages 2-18 will receive pro-bono limited one-time dental screenings, examinations and treatments.

Attendees will enjoy a fun carnival atmosphere with Miami Dolphins players and cheerleaders, face painters, magicians, music, “Timmy the Tooth” and “Razor the Shark” mascots.

NSU faculty members donate their time to this community service event and supervise dental students in this worthwhile project. Sponsors include Henry Schein, American Student Dental Association, and NSU College of Dental Medicine’s Student Government Association.
