Your Teeth Can Lend A Hand To A Child

From March through June, hundreds of dental practices throughout the U.S. and Canada are professionally whitening teeth to raise money for seriously ill, disabled, and underprivileged children in their local communities and around the world. They’re members of the Crown Council, an alliance of leading-edge dental teams that are passionately committed to promoting oral health, fighting oral cancer and serving their communities through charitable work.

100% Of The Donations Go To Children’s Charities

The Smiles For Life Foundation is the children’s charity arm of the Crown Council. Discus Dental (makers of ZOOM! teeth whitening and BriteSmiles trays) donates ALL of the whitening supplies, and participating Crown Council dentists donate ALL of their time. Together, they offer professional teeth whitening services at substantially reduced prices (donations) WITH 100% OF THE PROCEEDS GOING TO CHARITY.

Since 1998, we’ve raised over $27 million, benefiting hundreds of children’s charities. When you pay for your whitening, you’ll write your check directly to the Smiles For Life Foundation, not to the dental practice. Fifty percent of the donations are earmarked for each dental practice’s local charity partner, and the balance goes to the Smiles For Life Foundation to be distributed to worthy and approved children’s charities across the U.S. and Canada. Participating charities includes Children’s Miracle Network, Children of Romania, St. Jude Children’s Hospital, CURE (in Cambodia), Smiles For Hope, and the Kids Cancer Care Foundation.

Flash Those Pearly Whites!

Nothing helps you look or feel younger than a beautiful, healthy smile, it’s a huge boost to your professional and social life! And nothing is easier, or makes a more dramatic, immediate improvement in your smile than whitening. Now is the perfect time! Or, if you prefer, you can make a donation online WITHOUT whitening by clicking on the button on the right. When you make that donation through PayPal, you can designate a practice in your community to be credited with your donation—that way, 50% of the donation will help kids in YOUR community!

Why Professional Whitening?

Professional consultation ensures both safety and effectiveness. While over-the-counter systems may seem less expensive, many find that in order to achieve acceptable results, they’re constantly buying and bleaching. Experts agree that professional teeth whitening is the way to go for dramatic, longer-lasting results and convenience. And, of course, in this case it helps others as well as yourself.

Here’s A Chance To Make A Difference

EVERYBODY WINS! You save, and get a bright, beautiful smile. Kids get the money. And, both you and Dr. (dentist last name) and team feel satisfaction in knowing that the donations put smiles on the faces of many needy children.
