Customer Reviews

Teacher's Grade: B+

This was a strong effort from Dan Greenburg, but not the best in the series. Zack visits a new dentist to have some of his teeth worked on, but as often happens to Zack the new dentist is more than he appears to be. Zack starts going through a surprising transformation and he and his father must seek out some answers to get the situation resolved. This book is one of the more suspenseful in the series, and was enjoyed by my 7-year old son and me. I will probably have some of the kids in my 2nd grade class read this book when National Dental Month rolls around.

It was about Zack having crooked teeth.He had a new orthodontist.Then he saw him get really wild.How he got him back to normal was he got this mouthwash that helped him get better.Then one night him and his dad went to the orthodontist office....
