This year Claire Stagg, DDS, founder of Health Connections Dentistry in Indian Harbour Beach, published a children’s book titled Captain IFBI. “It’s a story for little ones and their parents,” says Dr. Stagg. “I want to empower families to take charge of their health with good oral hygiene habits at any age!”

Captain IFBI comes to life with lively colors and beautiful illustrations depicting various countries and cultures. The Captain is a caped superhero, arriving when he is called upon to help children understand the process of taking care of their teeth in a fun way. He spreads love and encouragement as children understand how to keep their teeth beautiful and healthy.

“There is nothing more unifying than a smile. Yes, the book is about oral hygiene, but it’s also about sharing a smile. Love and unity often start with a smile,” says Dr. Stagg. “This book not only offers an opportunity for parents and children to connect during their time reading and learning together but also to discover the world culturally and geographically.”
