From November 1st for about a week or so, we are doing a candy buyback.

What we are doing is paying people for Halloween candy. We’re paying a dollar a pound for the first five pounds that they bring in.

With that, we’re also giving people an entry into a drawing for an Oral-B Genius toothbrush to help focus on prevention. Murfreesboro Family Dentistry did this last year and we were very, very successful.

I feel grateful that we were able to send 75 pounds of candy to Operation Gratitude, which is a military-based company that sends care packages to troops who are serving overseas. We’re very, very fortunate that we are working with Postal Annex here in Murfreesboro, with the wonderful people there. They are going to help us send back some of that candy to Operation Gratitude so that we can get it out of the hands of some kids to keep their mouths healthier and help brighten the days of some troops.

Come visit us during office hours to help out with this worthy cause.

— UPDATE —

Our Candy Buyback Program was covered by WKRN News 2! That’s very exciting.
