Tooth Decay Jack

About the Book

Meet Tooth Decay Jack, the mis-understood monster. The tiny, hardworking friend with a cheeky smile and a satchel full of brushes, bottles, and moonlight cement. When Ellie drifts into a dreamlike city built from teeth, she discovers that Jack isn’t here to cause any harm but help repair the damage already done.

With the help of the Bristle Brigade, the Rinse Riders, and the Chew Crew, Jack patches craters, sweeps away crumbs, and reminds children that they are the true captains of their own smiles.

Blending whimsical with wisdom, Tooth Decay Jack turns a common childhood fear into an enchanting story about healthy habits, courage, and seeing things differently. Perfect for ages 5–8, this book offers parents, teachers, and dental professionals a gentle way to encourage brushing, flossing, and confidence at the dentist, while showing that sometimes even “monsters” are misunderstood.
