If your trick-or-treaters are anything like ours, Halloween ends with an epic candy haul. And while the kids might want to keep every last gummy and chocolate bar, that’s a lot of sugar. Luckily, a few local businesses make it easy (and fun!) to trade in that candy for cash or prizes! Protect those teeth, lighten the sugar load, and maybe even earn a few dollars. It’s a sweet deal.

🍭 Hollywood Children’s Dentistry  

On average, children collect over 7 pounds of Halloween candy. That’s a lot of sugar—and a perfect reason to join Hollywood Children’s Dentistry’s Great Candy Buy Back!
