Ditch your Halloween Candy & Earn Money for Your School
Mission Viejo Family Dentist is redefining the phrase” put your money where your mouth is.” Dr. Sarah Zirakzadeh, is helping elementary school kids keep their teeth healthy and help their schools earn money with a bag of candy! Trick-or- treaters can bring their excess candy to California Dental Care at two locations, one in Mission Viejo and another in San Juan Capistrano.
Dr. Zirakzadeh will buy back student’s candy for $1.00 per pound. She will also match the amount and donate money to the student’s elementary school.
Dr. Zirakzadeh says “Ditch Your Candy & Earn Money for Your School”. Visiting you dentist twice a year, daily brushing & flossing are great way to keep those ghoulish cavity bugs at bay and promote healthy teeth & gums. Kids can still have fun dressing up and trick-or –treating, but now there piggy banks and schools will benefit as well.
