In 2025, we hosted our first coordinated National Love Your Smile Day event, bringing together practices from across the country to help them drive revenue growth with clear aligners. Our team worked diligently to train each practice and guide them through every step of the process—from workflow training to marketing to day-of execution.

The results were spectacular and lent more proof to the transformative impact CandidPro can deliver to general dentists. 

In 2026, we expanded our efforts. More practices. More ambitious goals. More strategic and streamlined methods for supporting our providers. 

The result? A significant lift in revenue across all participants, with some notable standouts.

What is a Love Your Smile Day anyway?

If you’re familiar with CandidPro, you probably know that a Love Your Smile Day is a clear aligner production day planned by a CandidPro provider with support and guidance from our Practice Development team. The purpose of these days is to focus the practice on clear aligner consultations for a concentrated period of time in order to drive revenue.

Love Your Smile Day events have reverberating impacts beyond short-term revenue growth, though. These production events allow dental practice teams to pressure test their approach to marketing, malocclusion screenings, intraoral scans, and overall workflow. 

Our team routinely works with practices throughout the year to help them plan and host these events as a complimentary service offering. 

National Love Your Smile Day takes it up a notch

Our National Love Your Smile Day event coordinates the efforts of several practices into a few days of focused clear aligner production. This year, we worked with our partners at Patterson Dental, 3D Dentists, and our 2025 CandidCon attendees to plan and host these events. 

“National Love Your Smile Day is always a massive push,” says Jennifer Pinder, Director of Practice Development. “Between our team of Account Executives in the field and Patterson Territory Representatives, we put in a lot of time and effort to ensure each practice has what they need.”

Over 100 practices participated, and Jennifer’s team coordinated planning sessions and ongoing check-ins with each one up to eight weeks in advance.

All that hard work was worth it when the results started rolling in. 

Setting revenue records for our providers

For many practices that participated in our 2026 National Love Your Smile Day, watching everything come together was a rush. Teams put the workflows they had practiced into action, moving patients through the screenings, consultations, and diagnostic phases flawlessly. When all was said and done, many saw major lifts in production.

“Last year, we did a total of 17 aligner cases. For our first-ever Love Your Smile Day, we closed 13,” says Dr. Avinav Batra of Laden and Batra Dentistry in Franklin, TN. “The whole team rallied, and it was great to see them come together. With a few improvements, I could see us doing over 20 next time.”

“Historically, we do around 10 aligner cases each year. On National Love Your Smile Day, we closed 15.” Says Elija Brown of Revive Dental in Mt. Juliet, TN. “CandidPro really made it easy to host our event. I’ve never had anything close to that level of support before.”

One standout case study from this year’s event was Pax Dental. They had only recently joined CandidPro, but had set a lofty goal of 20 case starts. Their Account Executive, Jess Parker, brought Senior Practice Development Manager, Reece Nelson, along for their event. Neither of them expected the results. 

“The practice was absolutely packed,” says Reece. “It was my first time at a Love Your Smile Day event, so I asked Jess, ‘Is it always like this?’”

Jess replied, “No. This is different.”

When all was said and done, Pax Dental closed over 30 new CandidPro cases, driving a significant revenue bump to close out Q1. 

Continued growth and support

Though our National Love Your Smile Day events offer participating practices great short-term revenue benefits, the long-term is even better.

“We’re training offices to get smarter about clear aligner therapy from a holistic perspective,” says Jennifer Pinder. “It’s about creating systems that help them make clear aligner revenue a reliable part of their service offering.”
