“Smile Again, New Orleans” is a HRSA Special Project of National Significance (SPNS) initiative to provide oral health care services to the HIV positive population of Greater New Orleans on a mobile dental van.  It is a collaborative effort with the LSU School of Dentistry, Interim LSU Public Hospital, and the HIV Outpatient Program/HOP. Partners include the NO/AIDS Task Force and N`R Peace. The “Smile Again, New Orleans” clinical team consists of a dentist, hygienist, and a dental assistant that provides oral healthcare services in two chairs on the mobile van.

Diagnostic services, preventative services, and simple restorative procedures are provided. Complicated restorative procedures are not offered on the mobile dental van. The mobile dental van will travel to sites identified as having a significant population of those that are HIV positive and in need of oral health care services. 

Appointments are made on a referral basis (click here for the referral form). Please contact the mobile dental coordinator if you have questions or check this website for updates.
