often asked about our own Dr. Kroc:
Dr. Babcock attended Dental School at MCG in Augusta, Georgia, close to the great Okefenokee Swamp. Way back in 1976, when canoeing during a school break, Dr. Babcock became completely lost while deep in this foreboding swamp. To his great surprise, a friendly crocodile introduced himself and offered to guide him to safety IF Dr. Babcock would help him become a dentist, too. While completing school, they became great friends, although they often see "things" differently.

Smiles and great "bites" are important to all kinds of critters. Dr Kroc is in demand to treat so many frogs, rabbits, and squirrels that want a super smile, it's hard to believe. On the other hand, beavers don't care much about smiling but having a good bite is very important to them. Dr. Kroc often says, "I'm glad chickens don't have teeth or I would never have time to visit schools with Dr. Babcock to tell the students how important it is to take care special care of their teeth."

Dr. Kroc has always believed in fighting plaque, the bacterial enemy of all teeth, Dr. Kroc and Dr. Babcock have carried this message to schools for years. The problem started when Dr. Kroc saw the Ninja Turtles movies many years ago. He got stuck on the crazy idea to become a Ninja fighter too, so be could fight plaque better.
Dr. Kroc secretly enrolled in a Japanese Ninja School and used Dr. Babcock's credit card to fly to Japan and take every course available. When he returned, he surprised Dr. Babcock and the office wearing a Ninja suit and bringing all kinds of crazy Ninja stuff. He thought he was ready to fight Plaque anywhere and anytime now. You will have to judge how successful a Ninja he became. He's great at telling kids about PLAQUE, the tooth's enemy, no matter what.

We don't think so. Possible a little eccentric, but not crazy. Dr. Kroc gets so upset when he thinks of all the poor helpless teeth in the world being damaged by awful bacterial Plaque that sometimes he just can't stand it. He wants to fight plaque everywhere and tell all the kids that their wonderful teeth can't take care of themselves when mean Plaque starts his evil damage. So the kids have to help their teeth themselves. Dr. Kroc tries to make a big impression on kids so they remember this important message. He feels so strongly about this mission that sometimes he may act a little strange sometimes , but I promise you he means well and I've known him many years.

Dr. Kroc tells everyone to fight Plaque every day by brushing every tooth surface thoroughly. Be sure to visit your family dentist at least twice a year. Eat healthy foods to help your teeth and make your body strong. Only eat sweets as a special treat. Work hard in school to learn all you can so you can be whatever YOU want to be. Visit an orthodontist by age seven or eight to have the "bite" and growth patterns checked.

Dr. Kroc promises Dr. Babcock to help with all school programs but he often gets lost finding the right school and the right room at the right time. Sometimes he gets sidetracked chasing the principal around with his big toothbrush by mistaking him/her for a bacteria. HIS MOST IMPORTANT PROMISE IS THE PROMISE ALL THE KIDS MAKE TO BRUSH THEIR TEETH EVERY DAY!!!
