Bringing Healthy Smiles to Idaho Schools

Every year, millions of school hours are lost due to dental disease. That’s why Delta Dental of Idaho has Grins on the Go—a mobile dental clinic providing free cavity prevention services to income-qualifying elementary and middle school students across the state. During each visit, professional hygienists apply fluoride varnish and dental sealants to help protect young smiles and keep kids in the classroom.

Free Dental Benefits for Eligible Adults

As part of Delta Dental of Idaho’s community outreach efforts to improve the dental health of all Idahoans, the GrinWell for You program provides income-qualifying adults with an opportunity to receive dental benefits at no cost to them. Qualifying adults receive $1,850 in free dental care the first year and then have the option to purchase a subsidized preventive plan to maintain their oral health. Delta Dental of Idaho pays over half of the premium.
