In an effort to promote a safe and heatthy Halloween for children, Drs. Hersh and Beattie

will again buy-bock the candy that young trick-or-treaters collect this yeas. Although

Halloween is a fun holiday for everyone, too much candy can contribute to tooth decay.

For people who wear braces, eating sticky or chewy candies can also harm their braces

Dr. Nelson Hersh
and
Dr. Marsha Beattie

and may lengthen their overall treatment time

Candy may be brought to Hersh-Beattie Orthodontics following Halloween during normal

business hours. Our office will pay $2 for each pound of Halloween treats collected- $1

goes to the child and $1 will be donated to a local charily. Last year our buy-bock

program raised money for the Make-A-Wish foundation and the candy was given to local
