NEW YORK, N.Y., USA: Approximately 20 Team Schein Members participated in a TeamSmile event on Saturday, July 11, during Major League Baseball’s All Star Weekend in Cincinnati. During the event, 116 children received complimentary oral health assessments and treatment at the US Bank Boys and Girls Club.

In addition to receiving dental treatments including as X-rays, fillings, cleanings and sealants, children were educated on the significance of good oral hygiene and were given instructions about proper brushing and flossing techniques.

“This is our third year partnering with TeamSmile, and each year the event brings more smiles to the children we help,” said Butch Stenger, Henry Schein Dental’s regional manager in Cincinnati. “I am so proud of the Cincinnati dental community, who were so eager to fill the much needed volunteer positions — all in just three days.”

“The quick mobilization of Team Schein volunteers says a lot about our team and everyone’s willingness to ‘Give Back’ and ‘help health happen for children in our area,’” Stenger said.

Henry Schein Cares, the global corporate social responsibility program of Henry Schein Inc., has donated approximately $50,000 in dental supplies, materials and equipment, as well as transportation to support the 2015 TeamSmile program.
