Tips & Advice
- Consider the 'Pick Your Treats Wisely' tip from Graber & Gyllenhaal Orthodontics: chocolate melts away quicker than sticky candy, making it a better choice for your smile.
- To protect teeth, save candy for mealtimes when saliva production is higher, helping to wash away sugar.
- If brushing isn't possible immediately after trick-or-treating, a good rinse with water can help remove residual sugar.
- For children with braces, avoid hard candies, candy apples, taffy, and caramel to prevent dental emergencies.
- Encourage a 'candy swap' at home where children can trade extra sweets for toys or activities, reducing sugar intake while maintaining the fun.
