For years children were coming to Lehigh Valley Health Network’s dental clinic for regular check-up visits but few returned for restorations, extractions or more serious cases. When parents were asked why they didn’t bring their children back for much needed follow-up the response was often, “I couldn’t take any more time off from work.” Often the families had multiple children, limited transportation and dental care was simply not a priority.

After generous funding, corporate donations, community grant money, the Miles of Smiles mobile was designed. The NEW mobile unit is set to be released June/July 2024. It's a 40 feet long by nine feet wide RV, equipped with two treatment rooms, a digital x-ray unit, a central sterilizing device, a registration area and a wheelchair lift. Staffed by a driver who is also trained as a medical secretary, a dental assistant who is a certified bilingual interpreter, a dental hygienist and a dentist, Miles of Smiles is a customized, full-service dental clinic.
