Stats 4 Smiles in Charlotte

Scoring Smiles for Kids & Veterans

When players earn stats, kids & vets earn smiles. It’s as simple as that. As orthodontists, we understand the value of a confident smile, and we strongly believe EVERY person should be able to receive this gift. That’s why we came up with Stats4Smiles – a fun way to award FREE braces to kids & vets in need.

Here's how it works

  • Had a party at the end of the season where he showed up and surprised all the kiddos and their families that received FREE treatment due to his stellar play. ‘Twas quite a smile-filled occasion.
  • Kawann continues to #keeppounding and at the end of the 2017-2018 season, he had 30 (yes, THIRTY!!) kids smiling ear to ear, teeth just sparkling with our braces on them.

Stats 4 Smiles

Go Panthers! The staff of L.O. teamed up with some of our favorite Carolina Panthers to develop the Stats 4 Smiles™ community program. Each time one of our partner players scores or makes a big play during a game, we provide a child in need with orthodontic treatment for FREE! We work with local community leaders to find boys and girls who are in need of orthodontics, yet various circumstances keep them from receiving the care they deserve. It warms our hearts each time we see one of these youngsters smile for what may be the first time ever! Smiles Change Lives works with the dental community in our area to help us find kids who are in need.

Ready, Break!

Know a kid or veteran in need that would benefit from free braces? We want to hear their story.
