Your Whitened Teeth Can Benefit a Child Who Has Cancer - 2009 Smiles for Life Campaign Begins

Contributing to a children’s charity can be as easy as having your teeth whitened each year from March 1 through June 30. Dr. Rotem, a Toms River dentist and member of the national Crown Council, has donated thousands of dollars to Ocean of Love for the past five years by donating his fee for professionally whitening teeth during that time.

By whitening teeth and contributing 100 percent of his fees through the national Smiles for Life Campaign each year, Dr. Rotem and his patients have helped this nonprofit organization that aids families whose children have cancer.

Dr. Rotem says, “If you are planning to professionally whiten your teeth, this is a wonderful opportunity to do something for yourself and, at the same time, make a difference in a child’s life. We had a great campaign last year, and I hope we can contribute even more this year.”

To contribute to the 2009 Smiles for Life Campaign, call Dr. Rotem’s office to reserve a date for whitening (732 – 341 – 8500).

Since 1998, The Smiles for Life Foundation, the charitable arm of the Crown Council, has raised more than $15 million for children’s charities across North America because members of Crown Council dental practices have agreed to donate the cost of professional tooth whitening during the Smiles for Life campaign.

Dr. Rotem was graduated from NYU College of Dentistry in 1991. His practice focuses on cosmetic dentistry and conscious sedation. Dr. Rotem belongs to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. He is affiliated with the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, NJ Chapter of the Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the Dental Organization of Conscious Sedation, the International College of Cranial Mandibular Orthopedics, the American Dental Association, the New Jersey Dental Association, Monmouth/Ocean Dental Society, and the Academy of General Dentistry. Dr. Rotem is an active member of the Crown Council. He is also a member of the Jersey Shore Business Network, Toms River, and the Toms River Chapter of Toastmasters.
