Halloween does not have to mean cavities. It is less about how much candy and more about which kind and when.
Hardest on teeth
- Sticky caramels and taffy
- Hard candy and lollipops that linger
- Sour candies, which are acidic
Better choices
- Plain chocolate, which rinses away more easily
- Sugar-free gum
- Treats eaten with a meal instead of all day
Afterward
Drink water, and brush before bed.
