Concorde Career Colleges Celebrates National Children's Dental Health Month by Offering No-Cost Dental Services to Local Communities

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Jan. 28, 2026

"Oral care impacts everyone's overall health and wellbeing, and kids do better in school when they're healthy and can focus," said Kevin Prehn, President of Concorde Career Colleges. "Our Making Smiles events are an opportunity for Concorde's dental program leaders and students to bridge gaps in access to oral care and support our communities, while students also gain hands-on patient care experience."

Each campus event will provide preventive dental services for children ages 4 to 17, such as X-rays, dental cleanings, fluoride applications, and dental kits filled with oral care essentials, at no cost.

Care is provided by Concorde dental hygiene students under the supervision of licensed dental professionals and faculty members. The events are made possible through the generous support of sponsors Aspen Dental and PDS Health.
