Wooster, Ohio— October 2025 — Wooster Dental is excited to announce its Halloween Candy Buy-Back for the Troops. Children under 18 can trade their leftover Halloween candy for $1 per pound, up to 5 pounds, while donations from individuals of all ages will be collected to support U.S. service members through Troopathon.

“It allows us to continue to support our goal to limit cavity-provoking candy consumption among our little patients’ teeth,” said Dr. Sherman. “Our staff loves it, as do the parents. It is an easy way to ‘do good’ and support our troops at the same time. The program is administered through Troopathon.”
