Smile Squad is coming to Gilgai Plains in 2024

Smile Squad is a Victorian Government program that provides free dental care to all Victorian government primary and secondary school students.

We will let you know when Smile Squad will be coming to our school to provide dental examinations. Although Smile Squad is not visiting our school just yet, you can access free dental for students by calling your local community dental clinic DPV Health and asking for a Smile Squad appointment.

Visit the Smile Squad website at: www.smilesquad.vic.gov.au to learn more.

Smile Squad dental packs

All children deserve a healthy smile, and the Smile Squad free school dental program is working hard to help make sure this happens.

Your child(ren) will soon receive a free dental pack to bring home. The dental pack contains a toothbrush, full sized toothpaste, and an oral health brochure. Please take the time to read the brochure. It’s full of helpful hints and tips to help your whole family eat well, drink well and clean well – for life.

Standard strength toothpaste

Smile Squad provides standard strength fluoride toothpaste that is generally used by ages six and over, unless recommended by a dental or trained health professional.

If your child is under six, please talk to a dental or trained health professional to find out if your child might benefit from using this toothpaste. You can also choose to put the toothpaste away until they turn six or give it to someone else in your family to use.
