OCTOBER Newsletter 2016 |
Treat your visitors without tricking their teeth this Halloween |
|
For many children (and some adults) October means one thing: Candy. Specifically, sweet treats handed out on Halloween night. While the holiday may be fun for families, it’s no fun for teeth. If you want to hand out treats without distributing cavities and toothaches, here are a few tips for oral-health friendly choices:
- Sugar free gum – It is sweet tasting without the sugar, and can help remove food particles from teeth.
- Sugar free candy – While it may not clean teeth, sugar free candy is still a tooth-friendly sweet treat.
- Soft cookies – If you prefer traditional sweets, stick with cookies, or at least softer candy. Hard and sticky candies are the most likely to damage teeth, and kids with metal braces usually can’t eat them.
- Toys – The healthiest option for Halloween is probably to avoid food altogether, as most kids are already getting an overdose of sugar and other unhealthy “junk food.” Instead, opt for small toys or similar surprises for your visitors.

Did you know that healthy teeth can help you live longer? It's true! Your dental health can greatly affect your overall health, as it has been shown that there is an oral systemic connection between the mouth and body. When bacteria and infection occur in the mouth, they can be carried through the bloodstream and they can affect other parts of the body, increasing one’s risk for conditions such as kidney disease, heart disease, oral cancer, diabetes, and respiratory ailments. By being proactive about your dental health, you can reduce your risks for these medical conditions and improve your overall well-being!

Best dentist ever! I love going to the dentist just so I catch up with Kristen. She is such a sweetheart.
They make you feel like they truly care about you...because they really do. I only wish I didn't have to move out-of-state. Thanks, Dr. Adams!
