A Bright Economic Outlook: Kool Smiles Plans to Hire Nearly 100 South Carolina Residents in the Next 12 Months

ORANGEBURG, S.C., Nov. 7, 2011 – While the monthly news from the Bureau of Labor and Statistics reports slow – if any – job growth, Kool Smiles is pleased to announce plans to hire nearly 100 new employees for its South Carolina offices within the next 12 months. A leading dental health provider for children and adults, Kool Smiles has seen an increase in patients through positive patient referrals and will continue to expand to meet the growing demand.

Kool Smiles will continue to provide jobs from entry level front office positions to professional positions, including General Dentists, Endodontists and Oral Surgeons. By creating more jobs in South Carolina, Kool Smiles will be able to meet the growing demand for quality dental care. This expansion supports Kool Smiles' ongoing commitment to closing the dental care gap that exists among middle and lower income families.

House Representative Gilda Cobb-Hunter from Orangeburg, SC recognizes these additional jobs as a boon to the state: "I've always believed access to good medical and dental care shouldn't be a matter of income. In fact, the leadership of South Carolina has been working for years to ensure our citizens have access to affordable care. I am happy to see that these new Kool Smiles positions will also help the unemployed in our state gain employment which is another important step towards making access to health care a reality."

About Kool Smiles

Kool Smiles is a leading dental health provider dedicated to expanding access to quality dental care for children and families in underserved communities. Kool Smiles dentists are proud to offer care to kids and adults with almost any insurance plan, including State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), Medicaid and Tricare.  Kool Smiles also provides oral health education programs through partnerships with community schools and organizations. 

The alarming state of oral health today is the foundation upon which Kool Smiles has built its mission and vision. Despite the United States' status as the wealthiest country, the U.S. Surgeon General concluded that oral care is the #1 unmet healthcare need for children. Over 50 percent of 5- to 9-year-old children have at least one cavity or filling, and that proportion increases to 78 percent among 17-year-olds. Oral health is essential to the general health and well-being of children and plays a critical role in their ability to succeed in school and acquire positive self-esteem.
