Dentist Buys Back Halloween Candy

You can donate your goodies for military care packages all day Friday at Post Oak Pediatric Dentistry.

Post Oak Pediatric Dentistry is buying back those goodies you collected during all of that Halloween trick-or-treating and sending them to troops overseas.

Dental facilities across the country are participating in Operation Gratitude, an effort to send 60,000 care packages to men and women in uniform.

The offer is good from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday at Post Oak Pediatric Dentistry, which is located at 2155 Post Oak Tritt Road.
