Westrock Orthodontics, a clinic affiliated with Rock Dental Brands, announced its partnership with college football quarterback KJ Jefferson. The collaboration is the companys second NIL partnership that aims to promote the importance of oral health and a healthy smile, as well as document Jeffersons own oral health journey and smile transformation.
We are thrilled to add KJ to our all-star lineup to promote the importance of a healthy smile, said Westrock orthodontist Dr. Darren Hallums. We are a competitive group of providers that knows first-hand the effect a healthy smile can have on someones confidence. KJ is a well-known athlete and a 4-star football recruit. We couldnt be more proud that he trusts our team.
Jefferson is a native of Sardis, Miss. and a starting college football quarterback currently playing in Fayetteville, Ark. The partnership with Westrock Orthodontics was formed in light of the law passed in July 2021 allowing student athletes to be compensated for the use of their name, image and likeness (NIL).
Im excited to join the Westrock Orthodontics team as its newest patient and student athlete ambassador, said Jefferson. Rock Dental Brands is the states leader in oral health with clinics all over Arkansas and the region, including Westrock Orthodontics in Fayetteville, so I couldnt think of a better partner for me.
We are proud to announce our second NIL partnership and to welcome college football star KJ Jefferson to the Rock Dental Brands team, said Kristi Crum, CEO of Rock Dental Brands. Weve seen an outpouring of positive support from our first partnership with college basketball guard AuDiese Toney. We believe that everyone deserves a healthy smile and we are proud to make an investment in these players that will last a lifetime. We hope that this is another announcement of many as we continue building a star-studded line up of student athletes and NIL opportunities for our clinics and providers.

At last count, the Burleson Orthodontics & Pediatric Dentistry offices have over 30,000 satisfied patients, traveling from cities as far away as Chicago, New York, and San Francisco to be treated by one of our certified orthodontic specialists.
Dr. Burleson is the author of two Amazon best-selling consumer books, Stop Hiding Your Smile! and The Consumers Guide to Invisalign. As a two-time Inc. 500 | 5000 honoree recognized for building one of the fastest-growing orthodontic specialty practices in North America, he was also awarded the American Dental Associations prestigious Golden Apple Award in 2014 and the Missouri Dental Associations Outstanding Dental Leadership award in the same year.
Dr. Burleson writes five professional newsletters monthly, is the director of the Leo H.

Dr. Burlesons practices have worked with the prestigious Disney Institute and Ritz Carlton to bring the same wow experience to the smiles of all our patients. Asked what makes his practice different, he quickly replied with a warm smile, Its our people, our culture, and our commitment to do whatever it takes to serve the best interests of our patients and their families, even if that means referring them to a cheaper option in town or to one of our nonprofit foundations when parents are unable to afford treatment at a Burleson facility.

Went there to have my permanent retainers removed (I got them 11 years ago in a different state). I have severe Tourettes Syndrome and they were beyond kind and accommodating. Would absolutely recommend them.

Updated: Dr Mike is fab; Dr Amy is not as particular and I feel like our results suffered. They got behind because of cancelling appointments during COVID or ice storms - then acted like it was our fault we were past our expected end date.

I went in for a consultation today and was a little bit nervous. The staff at the front desk was fantastic the second I walked in the door. I had my consultation with Cheryl and she was super welcoming and made me feel so comfortable and at ease. I'm really glad I decided to finally make an appointment after years of contemplating. I'm so excited to get started!

First timer customer here and the customer service provided to me was great! Both ladies that helped me were very friendly and made sure I was comfortable. All of my questions were answered and all processes was explained, the nice lady even told me her own background story/experience with Westrock Orthodontist which made me feel better about proceeding with Invisalign. She stated that the satisfaction of helping people build their confidence with their new smile is rewarding :) I would definitely recommend this dental office for anyone interested.
