Tooth Buddy and the Golden Toothbrush

Every child in town wants to win the golden toothbrush award!
Who will win?

Why does a little pink bird named Dentina collect toothbrushes?

Follow Tooth Buddy and his adventures with the Golden Toothbrush as the importance of brushing and flossing are presented in a fun story that will help promote early dental health. Tooth Buddy is the creation of Dr. Weber and has evolved from a simple beginning while he was in dental school. After settling into his dental practice, he soon realized his pediatric dental patients responded positively to his young characters, Tooth Buddy and Dentina Decay. This book was inspired by these children’s interests and to teach simple, healthy dental habits in a fun and enjoyable way. Dr. Weber’s hope is that every child will be able to keep their “Tooth Buddy smile for life.”

Dr. Weber graduated from dental school at the University of Missouri in Kansas City, and currently resides and practices dentistry in the Tampa Bay area. While he has dedicated his professional life to dentistry, he has loved drawing ever since he was able to pick up a crayon. Dr. Weber believes that reinforcing a child’s desire to brush and floss routinely is one of the most valuable dental health lessons a dentist, parent, or educator can teach. Acquiring knowledge is a wonderful part of a child’s life. Learning oral health self-care skills encourages their sense of empowerment, teaches self-esteem, and personal health autonomy that can allow a child to develop lifelong habits for a healthy smile.
