Local Pediatric Dental Practice Launches Candy Buy Back Program to Benefit US Troops

TUCSON, Ariz. - Oct. 22, 2013 - PRLog -- For the 5th year in a row, Tucson Smiles Pediatric Dentistry is launching its November Candy Buy Back Program to benefit US troops overseas.  Last year, the pediatric dental office raised over 455 pounds of candy through the Candy Buy Back Program. The office hopes to surpass that amount this year.

“Our patients and their parents love the program,” says Dr. Laila Hishaw. “They are donating to a great cause and avoiding cavities at the same time!”

The candy buyback will be from November 1^st through the 8^th.  Participants are encouraged to bring their Halloween candy to any of the three Tucson Smiles Pediatric Dentistry offices located throughout Tucson.   Individuals will receive $1 for every pound of candy donated, with the maximum reward being $5.

Once the candy is collected, Tucson Smiles Pediatric Dentistry will package it up and ship all the candy to US military troops serving overseas.
