Smiles Change Lives Gives Free Braces for Kids in Need


Kids all over the world get braces on their teeth every day. Braces help straighten teeth to improve how they look and work. But did you know that braces are generally $4,000 to $8,000 and that insurance typically doesn’t cover the cost? So what if a child should get braces but their parents can’t afford them?

In this video, you’ll meet eight female orthodontists in St. Louis, MO who are using their abilities, talents and kind hearts to give free braces to kids who couldn’t otherwise afford them. These orthodontists are working through a national nonprofit organization called Smiles Change Lives.
