A Sweet Way to Make Everyone Smile!
Cavities, or dental caries, is the most prevalent childhood disease today. Each year across the world, kids consume 2% more sugar than the year before – that's 50 million tons of sugar annually! Sugar also contributes to hyperactivity and some candies can harm teeth or braces.
But every kid loves Halloween! So do adults. As responsible dentists, community members, and US citizens, Halloween Candy Buy Back dentists have found a way to keep the fun, while helping kids and our overseas troops.
How does the program work?
- Participating dentists buy back kids' Halloween candy
- The candy will be shipped to US soldiers serving overseas
- The buy-back event is held at a particular date and time, as arranged by you

- You'll also enjoy some great publicity!
