Whiter Smiles Bring Brighter Smiles for Kids

The Smiles for Life Foundation through Dr. Jason S. Kasarsky announced today the completion of the fifth annual Smiles for Life charity campaign. The campaign this year raised over $15,000,000 benefiting children's charities in the United States and Canada.

Dr. Kasarsky has a dental practice in New York and is a member of the Crown Council, an alliance of dedicated, leading-edge dentists located throughout North America who subscribe to a continually rising standard of dental care. The Smiles for Life campaign has raised more than $14,000,000 in the last five years which has benefited over 150 children's charities in North America. The Smiles for Life Campaign is unique. Participating dentists donate a teeth whitening procedure, and the patient receiving this treatment is invited to donate the cost of the whitening to the Smiles for Life Foundation. 100% of the contributed funds go to help kids.

The teeth-whitening procedure involves preparing a mold of the patient's teeth so that a customized whitening tray can be created and worn at home. Discus Dental, manufacturer of Nite White^TM and Day White^TM, is donating the whitening product to dentists participating in the charity campaign.

Teeth whitening has become very popular according to Dr. Kasarsky. It is one of the most requested dental procedures in the country. It is uncomplicated so far as the patient is concerned and adds considerably to the appearance of the recipient.

A participating partner in the Smiles for Life campaign is the Garth Brooks Teammates for Kids Foundation. Because of Garth Brooks' connection to baseball, he has been able to enlist the aid of a group of major league ball players who have agreed to add $1,000 to the charity fund for every home run the player hits or $100 per base hit. Pitchers donate for every strike-out, etc.
