Serving Our Community

Texas Pre-Dental Society partners with KTTO to provide pediatric dental care in rural elementary schools through a mobile pediatric dental van. We provide routine treatment and procedures, such as cleanings, fillings, crowns, extractions, etc. The mission of KTTO is to serve children that need dental care the most, regardless of socioeconomic status or geographical location. Over the past several years that TPS has partnered with KTTO, we’ve been able to donate over $200 million worth of free dental care!

S.M.A.R.T. Smiles is a community-driven initiative that brings together dental professionals, service organizations, and volunteers to provide free dental care to children in need. This program has made a significant impact, delivering over $1.9 million in donated care to elementary school children in the Texas Hill Country. Our members look forward to ensuring every child has access to the dental care they deserve!
