Halloween is coming, and your teeth may be in for a sweet and sticky few weeks. Here are a few tips from the team at Fiori Dental in San Mateo:
Choose chocolate over hard or chewy candy. It rinses off teeth more easily and is less likely to get stuck in grooves.
Enjoy sweets with a meal or shortly after, when extra saliva helps wash away sugar.
Rinse with water after treats, then wait about 30 minutes before brushing.
Skip the candy that could crack a tooth, like hard candy and jawbreakers.
