Proper oral hygiene should start at a young age. By the time we have a full set of adult teeth at the age of 12 or 13, it is important to have acquired the knowledge and habit of brushing, flossing, and attending routine dental cleanings. But not every child has the opportunity to learn how to keep those teeth healthy.

Dr. John’s Healthy Sweets understands the importance of lifelong oral health. This is why we have created our own line of Oral Health candies that promote healthy teeth and gums. In celebration of World Oral Health Day, we contributed a portion of every purchase from our tooth shaped lollipops to America’s Tooth Fairy.

America’s Tooth Fairy: National Children’s Oral Health Foundation is a non-profit organization that was founded in 2006 to address the children’s oral health crisis. With the shared belief that “Every child deserves a healthy smile,” our contribution helps America’s Tooth Fairy with their mission of providing resources so that underserved children can have access to oral health care. Financial support is given to non-profit clinics where community partners can deliver education and provide preventative oral care and treatment services. By funding low-income families who don’t otherwise have the means to access dental care, teaching families how important oral health is, and supplying daily oral hygiene products, there is the possibility to restore healthy smiles.

Dr. John’s is a proud donor when it comes to working toward a pearly white future.
