Why does everyone keep telling Carolina to brush her teeth?
On Carolina’s island, the adults have one rule for teenagers: brush your teeth six times a day.
They say that if you don’t, La Dentista will come for you.
Carolina isn’t sure she believes them. But there’s something else she can’t ignore:
None of the adults on the island have any teeth.
As Carolina begins asking questions, she discovers that the adults may be hiding something much stranger, and much more dangerous, than an old legend.
A real graphic novel, made by professionals.
Created by an international team of comic professionals from across the Americas.
