Allow Us to (Re)Introduce Ourselves
Delta Dental and The National Theatre for Children (NTC) have been successful partners for four years, bringing the Land of Smiles live and virtual programs to schools around the country. To this point our work for Delta Dental has focused on elementary school students in grades PK-3. Now, we’re excited to introduce NTC Studios, our in-house creative agency dedicated to developing compelling video, digital, and graphic design content for audiences of all age groups.
While NTC’s educational programs engage K-12 schools at scale, NTC Studios expands beyond the classroom to create engaging content for any demographic. Our team brings the same storytelling excellence and production quality that has made our partnership with Delta Dental so successful, now applied to tailored content solutions designed to make an impact on all of your members and communities.

Welcome to The Grin Prix! This video for students in grades K-3 follows Captain Super Grin in a race across the Land of Smiles as he faces off with his newest foe, Cazzidy Cavity, mother of Caz Cavity himself!
This videos series was designed to introduce high school students in North Texas to career options in the water utilities industry. The program is currently running on behalf of our Texas client. This same approach could introduce the high school audience in your communities to careers in the oral healthcare industry.
NTC Studios developed recruitment videos for the 12 governmental departments of Washington County, Minnesota. Our video for their library system is provided as an example of this work. The same structure of interviews and testimonials could be applied to awareness content for Delta Dental programs and partnerships.
NTC Studios created a series of videos featuring energy efficiency tips for Focus on Energy customers in Wisconsin. These seasonal videos were produced in both English- and Spanish-language versions.
