Trick or Treat!

Halloween is a great time to remind your children of the importance of good oral hygiene.

Nearly every ghost and goblin is anticipating the annual “Halloween Haul” of candy-coated sweetness.  The occasional sweet treat is fine, but too much indulgence can lead to some negative consequences — including tooth decay.

Remind your children of the importance of brushing their teeth twice-a-day and a daily flossing regime.  Children imitate their parents’ behavior.  Be a good dental health role model by brushing your teeth with your children.
