Halloween Candy BuyBack

Enjoy trick or treating without the cavities!

This Halloween, trick-or-treaters can bring their excess candy to Bonsack Family Dentistry in Abingdon and receive $1 per pound.
Drs. Tessa Modiri and Edgar Radjabli are leading this anti-decay movement by giving away dollars and toothbrushes in exchange for cavity-provoking candy. “Ditch the candy, that’s what we’re saying. Visiting your dentist twice a year and brushing daily are great preventative measures, but doing away with excess sweets altogether would really give your teeth a healthy boost,” says Dr. Modiri from Bonsack Family Dentistry. “Kids can still have all of the fun of trick
or-treating, and now their piggy banks will benefit as well.”
Global sugar consumption for kids increases by about 2% annually and currently sits at 50 million tons per year, which means parents need to be sure their kids teeth are being cared for more than ever. Candy, as well as hurting children’s teeth, can lead to hyperactivity and weight gain. In some cases, the wrong types of candy can also lead to broken teeth and damaged braces. Candy will be collected at Bonsack Family Dentistry at 3105 Emmorton Road #2A on the Saturday after Halloween, November 5th only from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. The candy must be unopened. Please no bites. It will then be placed into care packages for armed forces personnel serving overseas. Drs. Tessa Modiri and Edgar Radjabli are the new owners of Bonsack Family Dentistry in Abingdon, which emphasizes general family dental care as well as cosmetic and implant procedures.
