Smiles for Life Foundation

Our Participation in the Smiles for Life Foundation

Dr. Robert Weinstein and his team at Texas Wisdom Teeth and Dental Implants is proud to be a member of the Crown Council, a prestigious alliance of leading-edge dentists around the world.  The Crown Council and it’s members are committed to promoting oral health, fighting oral cancer and serving their community.  [1]

It is important to Dr. Weinstein and his team to support their community through volunteerism, medical missions and charitable giving.  One of the ways in which we do this is through our support of the Crown Council’s charitable arm, the Smiles for Life Foundation.  Smiles for Life has donated over $30 Million to hundreds of children’s charities since 1998.  100% of donations collected go to children’s charities.

Some of the Children’s charities that participate in the Smiles for Life Foundation are:

Children’s Miracle

Network

Children of Romania

St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital

CURE (In Cambodia)

Smile for Hope

Kids Cancer Care Foundation

How We Contribute

Traditionally, Crown Council member offices engage in a promotional event held annually from March through June, during which member offices offer professional teeth whitening at a deeply discounted price.  100% of the proceeds from this event go to charity.

As an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, Dr. Weinstein does not offer teeth whitening in his practice.  He had to get creative about how he could participate in this worthwhile cause that has changed many lives.  One of the most popular treatments offered in Dr. Weinstein’s oral surgery practice is dental implants to replace missing teeth.  The simple idea occurred that Dr. Weinstein would contribute a portion of the consultation fee for a dental implant to the Smiles for Life Foundation.  He decided to do this all year long, rather than from March through June every year. We expect to raise over $1200 for Smiles for Life in the coming year.  We hope to exceed that estimation each and every year.

When you see Dr. Robert A. Weinstein for a dental implant consultation, you are supporting children’s charities at home and worldwide.

Thanks to all of our wonderful patients for helping us make a difference in the lives of children in need.
