Oooo, how we love a chance to bring you smiles. Speaking of which… keep your smiles shining this week with confidence:
☠️Worst Candies for 🦷
Sticky candies such as caramels, taffy or gummies are some of the worst for the mouth because they stick to the grooves in your teeth and linger in your mouth longer, giving more time for decay to develop. Hard candies (a.k.a 🍭lollipops) and sour candies can also cause issues if left on teeth too long.
Reminder: Sugar and acidic foods break down enamel faster.
💡Better Candies for 🦷
Chocolate 🍫 is a better candy for your teeth because it dissolves off the teeth more quickly. Candies and chewing gums made with xylitol are considered “tooth-friendly” because xylitol helps kill off the bad bacteria in the mouth leading to fresher breath and fewer cavities.
