BIG NEWS! We are proud to introduce Align Technology as the latest industry supporter of the Smiles4Canada program. We value their commitment to the CAO and its programs.

Align Technology is proud to launch a new initiative with the Canadian Association of Orthodontists' Canadian Foundation for the Advancement of Orthodontics (CFAO).

Under this initiative, Align has committed to support Invisalign® treatment for 30 eligible patients through CFAO’s Smiles4Canada program, a public health goodwill program founded in 2016 to put a smile, both figuratively and literally, on a young person with significant orthodontic needs, whose family does not have the financial resources to pay for the procedure.

This sponsorship reflects our commitment to increasing access to care for orthodontic treatment especially for children, and Align’s support of the Canadian orthodontic profession.
