It’s that time of year — Halloween! Halloween means lots of pumpkins, fall decorations, spooky costumes, and… SWEETS. It’s okay to have fun and enjoy your trick-or-treating goodies, but our friends at Madison Smile Solutions have some expert tips on how to keep those teeth cavity free during ‘treat season’!
5 Teeth Friendly Halloween Tips:
- Steer clear of sticky candy, lollipops, and gummies.
- Brush with a fluoride toothpaste and floss 30 minutes after eating candy.
- Drink plenty of water.
- Use xylitol mint, gum or lollipops to decrease cavity causing bacteria level.
- Limit the number of sweets your family is allowed to eat each day.
