UMSOD Champions Smiles at Special Olympics Healthy Athletes Event
July 23, 2025

Last month, the University of Maryland School of Dentistry proudly participated in the Special Olympics Healthy Athletes event during which:
- 55 athletes received free dental screenings
- every athlete got personalized oral hygiene education
- 15 custom athletic mouthguards were crafted for athletes in contact sports
- fluoride varnish was applied to help protect the majority of athletes' smiles
We’re honored to support these incredible athletes and promote lifelong oral health.
Thank you to our dedicated students, faculty, and volunteers who made this possible!
