NYC Cosmetic Dentist Changes the Life of a Small-Town Girl, and Lands Her in Hollywood
Haley Jordan of The Fitness Marshall Wins her Dream Smile Through Dr. Rubinshtein’s Smile Makeover Contest
New York, NY – October 16, 2017 – Dr. Daniel Rubinshtein, a New York City cosmetic dentist, has changed the life of a young girl from a small town in Indiana. Haley Jordan was nominated by a former high school teacher for the Smile Makeover Contest ran by Dr. Rubinshtein in 2015, and awarded in 2016. Inspired by Haley’s story, Dr. Rubinshtein granted her with a life changing opportunity to have a dream smile. Tomorrow, on Tuesday, October 17, 2017, Dr. Rubinshtein is reuniting Haley and the teacher that made this dream a reality as a surprise in NYC. Haley is undergoing her final visit with Dr. Rubinshtein from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. at Bensonhurst Dental Care, located at 1872 80th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214 to complete her smile.
Haley comes from an estranged family with little money and an absentee mother who didn’t recognize that Haley’s crooked teeth would be a cause for other students to make fun of her. Throughout her childhood, she was reserved and showed lack of confidence because of her teeth. In Haley’s first consultation after winning the contest, she immediately began gaining confidence, which grew with each visit.
The Smile Makeover Contest went viral on social media before entering the 2016 new year. Dr. Rubinshtein understood the effects of a smile, and has seen patients transform their lives due to his dental work. He decided by beginning this contest, he would have the opportunity to give back to someone deserving. “I was extremely touched when a patient came to me regarding his smile and how it affected his day-to-day life. He wanted a ‘temporary’ fix for his teeth for a date with his dream girl. I quickly realized he wasn’t the only person struggling with self-esteem due to their smile and that’s when I decided to begin the Smile Makeover Contest,” says Dr. Daniel Rubinshtein.
Haley comes from a family who could not afford braces; however, she stood out for many other reasons. When Haley’s former high school choir teacher nominated her to Dr. Rubinshtein’s contest, she was unaware of the contest and her nomination. “When I entered Haley into the contest, I really didn’t know her that well; last year when she worked at our coffee shop, did prom makeup for our high school girls, and worked a little with our marketing class, I fell in love with her myself. I knew Haley had a lot of potential, and how much the smile makeover would mean to her,” says Diana Gardner, Haley’s former teacher.
After being chosen as the winner, Dr. Rubinshtein paid for her travel back and forth between Indiana and New York for the first few months of her dentals visits, while attending Ball State University. In Haley’s case, the ‘perfect’ smile would make a difference in her self-esteem and any future career opportunities as she began to gain popularity online with the YouTube dance fitness channel she is a part of, The Fitness Marshall. In November of 2016, The Fitness Marshall began to take off. With over 1 million YouTube subscribers, The Fitness Marshall has been featured in the reality show “My Big Fat Fabulous Life.” Since then, its fans and popularity have grown beyond the groups wildest dreams and has granted Haley a life that once seemed unattainable.
Tomorrow, on Tuesday, October 17, 2017 Haley will visit Dr. Rubinshtein’s office for the final time to complete her smile makeover. Her story continues to inspire young individuals throughout the country to never allow your appearance to get in the way of your dreams.
