Toledo Smiles, a community initiative started by the Junior League of Toledo, is a dental care program tailored to reach junior high students, an underserved age group.

"According to national statistics, more than 51 million hours of school time in the United States are lost each year due to dental pain, infection and related illnesses; and the Ohio Department of Health has identified Dental Care as the #1 unmet health care need of Ohioans."

The dental health fair consists of a series of fun, hands-on activities, focusing on proper brushing and flossing techniques, the danger of tobacco use and soda pop consumption, the importance of good nutrition, and the use of mouthguards. Students interact with instructors and become involved in the learning process. They are given supplies to apply at home what was learned during the day long fair.


In total we have educated approximately 2,500 junior high students in the Toledo area.

2005 East Toledo Jr. High

2007 Leverett Jr. High
2009 Jones Middle School
