Orland Park Dental Services will be coming to OPS soon! Stay tuned for the date. Eligible students will receive a cleaning, fluoride treatment, and sealants if needed. Sealants are a protective coating on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. This program is offered for all grades, but the state requires K, 2nd & 6th grade students to have a mandatory dental exam prior to May 15, 2024. This dental exam will fullfill the requirement. Forms have been sent home with your students. Please return them to school by Thursday, August 31 if you would like your child to participate.
