We’re all already well aware that summer is officially the smile season, right?
Now that doesn’t mean autumn isn’t awesome, spring doesn’t provoke a significant amount of smiles, or that winter smiles are watered down.
It’s not because President’s Day, or those week-long winter breaks for most schools giving parents a chance to catch up on those checkups.
February is the favorite month out of the year for dentists because of the dental health awareness theme throughout the entire month.
According to the New Jersey Center for Tourette Syndrome website, as many as 1 in 100 kids show signs of Tourette Syndrome – most of them undiagnosed, misdiagnosed and/or misunderstood.
Tourette Syndrome (TS) – is a neurological disorder characterized by involuntary movements or sounds known as tics.
Reportedly 1 in 100 kids show symptoms of Tourette Syndrome in New Jersey – an estimated prevalence of over 20,000.
Family & Cosmetic dentist Dr. Joseph Haddad of Advanced Dental Arts in Somerset, NJ is once again proud to announce his support for the upcoming NJ Walks for TS event being held Sunday March 29 at Mercer County Park – Princeton Junction, NJ.
Dr. Haddad has donated $1000 in support of NJ families dealing with Tourette Syndrome; this is the second consecutive year his Advanced Dental Arts office has made such a generous charitable contribution.
With the support of our local Somerset NJ community, we were able to collect about 30 pounds of extra Halloween candy during our 2nd annual buy-back event held at our Advanced Dental Arts dental office.
We are so happy & proud to participate in this effort to help put some of that leftover Halloween candy to good use. And we want to thank everyone who participated in helping us send this tiny little token of appreciation from home to our armed forces troops currently stationed overseas.
In this our second year running the Halloween Candy Buyback program, any children who dropped off extra candy they managed to trick or treat local Franklin Township residents out of Halloween night were paid $2 per pound.
Dr. Haddad and the entire team here at Advanced Dental Arts is proud to say that all of the candy you helped us collect during our two-day event – held November 3rd & 4th – will be sent to U.S. troops serving overseas.
Also accompanying the candy, the staff here at Advanced Dental Arts will be including “thank-you” cards for the troops.
If we can all pitch in to boost the spirit or lift the morale of a single Soldier, Marine, Sailor, Airman, or Guardsman serving overseas – even a tiny bit -maybe we can help make someone smile!
“We definitely want to thank everyone who came and brought candy in for our troops,” Dr. Haddad said. “We thank you for participating.”
We Hope Some of Our Troops Have a Sweet Tooth!
Dr. Joseph Haddad is proud to announce our Halloween Candy Buyback Event in support of our troops at our Advanced Dental Arts Somerset NJ dental office.
We’ll be hosting our Halloween candy buyback program & charity event to support our troops stationed overseas.
It’s a well-known fact that too much candy can lead to uncomfortable dental problems & this year, Advanced Dental Arts is doing something about it!
On November 3rd & 4th 2014 from 3pm–6pm, we will be hosting the event in our Advanced Dental Arts office, conveniently located at 738 Easton Ave. in Somerset, NJ. 08873.
Children will receive $2 per pound of excess Halloween candy that they bring in to our office.
All candy will be donated to troops serving overseas. It’s a great way to reduce the amount of candy your kids consume while supporting a good cause.
No appointment is necessary to participate in this event. Parents & children are encouraged to walk in & drop off our candy between the hours of 3pm-6pm.
