Smiles Change Lives (SCL) is a non-profit organization that provides access to orthodontic treatment for qualified children from families that cannot afford the full cost of braces. Based in Kansas City, MO, the program has treated more than 11,000 children since 1997, making it the nation’s leader in providing access to orthodontic care for qualified youth.

Several partnering orthodontists in the Tulsa area have immediate openings to treat children with braces who qualify.
