ALPHARETTA, GA, October 25, 2012 (Press-News.org) Jones Bridge Dental Care is redefining the phrase "put your money where your mouth is." This Halloween, trick-or-treaters can bring their excess candy to Jones Bridge Dental Care in Alpharetta and receive $1 per pound, for up to 5 pounds of candy. Dr. Leo Yelizarov is leading this anti-decay movement by giving away dollars 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. Yelizarov from Jones Bridge Dental Care. "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.
How Does the "Cash for Candy" Initiative Work?
Candy will be collected at Jones Bridge Dental Care (11925 Jones Bridge Road), starting the day after Halloween and continuing through November 8th. The candy must be unopened, and kids must come in with an adult to exchange their candy for cash. Jones Bridge Dental Care will then ship the candy to our troops with the help of Operation Gratitude, an organization that sends literally tons of candy to our troops during the holidays. Kids are also encouraged to write a letter, or draw a picture to demonstrate their appreciation, which Jones Bridge Dental Care will send with the candy.
Dr. Leo Yelizarov is one of three dentists at the recently expanded Jones Bridge Dental Care, which specializes in general dentistry, sedation dentistry, implants, and same-day crowns.
