About our guest:
Justin Lowry, a Nashville native and MTSU graduate, transformed his 25-year battle with addiction into a mission to help others. In 2023, he partnered with longtime friend Dr. Aaron Pryor to launch Smiles For Recovery, a program providing free dental implants to those in need while training young surgeons.
What started as a simple idea quickly grew into a movement. In January 2024, their team of doctors placed over 100 implants in a single day, giving patients life-changing smiles. Since December 2023, they have provided over $4.5 million in free dental care and placed more than 700 implants for individuals who could never afford such treatment.
On July 4, 2024, Smiles For Recovery became an official nonprofit with a dedicated Board of Directors. Justin and his team remain committed to restoring confidence and transforming lives—one smile at a time.
