Why it matters for dental
School districts that contract mobile dental providers create new in-school access points that can shift pediatric patient volume away from private practices and DSOs.
Key points
- Culver City Unified School District Board of Education voted to approve a one-year partnership with Big Smiles California for on-site mobile dental services at participating schools.
- The program will deliver free preventive dental care directly to students at Culver City Middle School, Culver City High School, and La Ballona Elementary School.
- Big Smiles California will operate an on-site mobile dental facility under the district agreement for the upcoming academic year.
- California’s Williams Settlement legislation mandates county verification of instructional materials but does not cover the new dental services contract.
