Healthy Smile Series ~ What can you do with all that Halloween Candy?

Your children did their Trick or Treating all over town and now you need a "trick" to make all that candy disappear before it goes to their, or your, waistline; causes a bellyache or tooth decay. 

We have the answer.... 

Our dental office is holding our fifth annual Halloween Candy buy back


Our tooth fairy will be giving  $ 1 gold coins for every pound of candy that is donated.

The Halloween Candy Buy Back event will be held Monday, November 2nd  4 - 6:00 pm at our dental office. 5011 Plainfield Ave NE, Grand Rapids MI 


The candy collected will be sent to the troops in the Middle East through the Operation Gratitude program.

Every child attending our event received a new toothbrush and other fun treats as well as those shiny $ 1 coins.


Our office collects over 300 pounds of candy annually. More than 1300 pounds of candy has been collected by our dental office since we began working with Operation Gratitude.


Operation Gratitude  puts together care packages for the troops to put smiles on their faces and UPS has generously helped ship the candy to Operation Gratitude free of charge!  


We love the opportunity to show our Veterans that we haven't forgotten about them!
