Who We Are
Smiles for Heroes is a Colorado Springs–based nonprofit founded by three local clinicians committed to honoring those who serve. With our combined expertise in pediatric dentistry, general dentistry, and oral and maxillofacial surgery, we provide essential dental and surgical care for service members, veterans, first responders, and working families who cannot afford it.
Â
Using donated funds and a sliding scale tied to household income, we offer support case by case and as resources allow. Our 501(c)(3) status is currently pending, and donations may be tax‑deductible pending IRS determination.
Â
From young children to older adults, we’re equipped to care for anyone who comes through our doors with dignity, respect, and the highest standard of clinical care.
Who We Help
We serve the people who serve our community. Smiles for Heroes provides dental care and oral surgery support for families in Colorado Springs and the surrounding area who have served and who cannot afford needed care.
Â
Assistance is offered case by case, guided by a sliding scale tied to household income and limited by available funds. Our goal is to make essential treatment accessible; with dignity, respect, and no barriers rooted in cost.
