About Dr. Ben Magleby

Dr. Ben Magleby is a family dentist who believes that healthy habits start early. 

After seeing how kids struggled with the idea of brushing and cavities, he created Sugarbug Doug — a fun, relatable character who turns oral health into a story kids love.

Through books, coloring pages, and hands-on resources, Dr. Ben’s mission is simple: make dental education engaging, approachable, and lasting for families everywhere.

Who is Sugarbug Doug?

Sugarbug Doug is more than a character — he’s a playful way to help kids understand how cavities form and why brushing matters. Created by Dr. Ben, a family dentist and dad, these books and activities make dental care less scary and a lot more fun. Whether at home, in the classroom, or at the dentist’s office, Sugarbug Doug is here to spark smiles and healthy habits.
