Trick or Treat
It's that time of year. Halloween.
Here are some tips to protect your kids from the cavity bugs.
More frequent consumption of candy is bad for your teeth. Have the kids eat some of their candy in a 15 minute interval, then brush their teeth afterwards.
Try to stay away from sticky and chewy candies. These stick to your teeth and cause an increased risk for cavities.
Sugar free candies and gums with xylitol are great in reducing acid buildup that can lead to cavities.
