Halloween Candy Buyback
What's the scariest thing about Halloween for a pediatric dentist? CANDY! We know it's all part of the fun, but we also know what giant amounts of sugar can do to a someone's teeth, especially if that someone is just learning how to take care of them. To help cut down on the candy, we hold a Halloween Candy Buy Back at the office every year. Just bring your kids and their bags of Halloween goodies in and we'll pay them $1.00 per pound of candy (up to $6.00 per child)! Dates will be posted on the front page each year, so stay tuned!

School Dental Program
Part of our job as pediatric dentists is to teach kids how to take care of their teeth, and to inspire them to do it regularly. Our office offers a lively presentation for school-age children that teaches them about dental care in an interactive, age-appropriate way with puppets and games and lively demonstrations. We also host school field trips at our office so young kids can get a fun, non-threatening, close-up look at a visit to the dentist. If you think you’d like to come visit us, or have us come to your school or your scout troop, please talk with your school administrator or troop leader and have them contact us to set up a time.
