Community Smiles has been delivering oral health care to the underserved since 1946 and we’re now the largest community-based dental clinic in the state of Florida – $14.6 million in subsidized care and served over 10,000 patients in 2016. Originally the Dade County Dental Research Clinic, Community Smiles began as a program of the Dade County Public School System, with the mission to provide quality dental care and oral health education to the underserved, while providing post-graduate dental education and training for dental assisting students. Over the past 70+ years the clinic has evolved into a beacon for accessible care to recent immigrants, the homeless, at-risk youth, and other compromised populations. Due to our caring volunteers, multi-lingual staff, and inviting atmosphere, Community Smiles has maintained its niche as the safety-net oral healthcare provider in Miami-Dade County.
