Smiles Create SmilesTM

Recover production already sitting in your practice — and help treat more Smiles Change Lives kids.

What if the patients who stopped responding in your practice could increase your production while helping cover the SCL patients you treat?

Through a structured re-engagement process, orthodontists are discovering that many “nonresponsive” exam patients are still interested in treatment — creating new opportunity inside their practice while expanding access to care for children who need it most.

Practice Success Creates More Smiles

Smiles Create Smiles TM is built on a simple belief. When orthodontic practices uncover opportunity already sitting inside their practice, that success creates the capacity to treat more children through Smiles Change Lives. First we focus on helping your practice gain clarity and recover dormant production. Then that success can create the opportunity to provide more life-changing smiles for kids who need them most.

You don’t have to choose between growing your practice and giving back. Smiles Create SmilesTM helps you do both.

Every orthodontic practice has patients who:

âś“ Completed a consultation

✓ Expressed interest in treatment

 ✓ Stopped responding to your follow-up

Over time these patients are simply written off.

Not because they weren’t interested — but because the practice has no clarity on:

Who is still interested

Who needs more time

Who has already moved on

Every orthodontic practice has this list. Very few know what it's worth

The goal isn't to create interest.
It's to identify the interest that already exists.

Let’s be clear about one thing.

The opportunity identified through the above process is not guaranteed. However, based on our expertise in this area we can guarantee we will make a connection with a majority of your list to identify the following

01. Who is ready to start treatment now


02. Who is still interested but needs more time


03. Who is no longer interested


 What this process provides is something most practices never have:

Clarity.

Instead of chasing 100 unknown patients, your team focuses on the patients who have confirmed they are still interested

What Is Your Non-Responsive List Worth?

Most orthodontic practices have 50–150 non-responsive exams sitting in their system.

A Majority.

Will Respond.

A High % Of The

Respondents will Still be interested

The question becomes:

What would that opportunity represent inside your practice?

Exclusive SCL Provider Partnership

To support orthodontists who participate in Smiles Change Lives, we created a partnership version of our program.

The standard investment for our 45 Day Non-Responsive Exam Re-Engagement Program is:
$3,500

However, for doctors who treat Smiles Change Lives patients, we apply a Give Back Credit based on the number of SCL children you commit to accepting. The details of this partnership are discussed during the discovery conversation to ensure it aligns with your practice and your involvement with SCL.

Why I Created Smiles Create Smiles™

When I was a partner in an orthodontic practice from 2011 until we sold the practice in 2018, one of the most rewarding things our team did was treat as many Smiles Change Lives kids as we could. I remember our doctor asking me one day, “Eric, can we afford to keep doing this?” I told her, “You keep treating the kids — I’ll make sure we can afford it.” The letters we received from those kids — written in their own words and handwriting — still stay with me today. Smiles Create Smiles™ was created to support orthodontists who are already giving back and help them treat even more children.
