This April, our office was buzzing with energy as we hosted local Girl Scout troops from the Jersey Shore for a day full of smiles, science, and sparkle. It was our second time teaming up with the Scouts for a hands-on dental experience — and let’s just say, these girls brought the tooth fairy energy.
Sealants, Stuffed Animals & Curing Lights — Oh My!
After a quick tour of our surf-chic office (yes, we floss and ride waves), the Scouts met our most cooperative patient — a giant stuffed animal — who helped us demo dental tools and what really happens during a cleaning. Then came the fan favorite: a sealant station where the girls got to play dentist and apply pretend sealants using real curing lights and tooth models. Hands-on learning? Check. Future dental pros in the making? Double check.
Tooth Fairy Boxes & Badge Bling
While one group played with sealants, another got crafty decorating their very own tooth fairy boxes — because protecting smiles should come with glitter. Each Scout left with her dental hygiene badge proudly earned, plus a certificate and some Surfside Smile Co. goodies to remember the day.
We’re stoked to support these bright young leaders and can’t wait to hang ten with the next round of Girl Scouts. Until then, keep brushing and keep smiling!
