Let Them Eat Candy! How to manage your kid's oral health after Halloween!

Halloween is almost here!

Let's be honest right now: Halloween is all about the candy. And we are NOT here to ruin that for anyone. 

The good news is that it’s not how much your kids eat (or how much you sneakily steal from them); it’s how you handle what comes after.

1. Time it right. Serve treats with dinner or a meal, all at once instead of a little bit all day. How often teeth are exposed to sugar does more damage than how much.
2. Rinse with water. Water starts the enamel’s recovery process and also helps neutralize pH while rinsing those acids away.
3. Wait before brushing! After sour candy, wait at least 30 minutes so you’re not scrubbing off softened enamel.

4. Give the good bacteria a boost! Our PROtektin™ products are designed to balance the oral microbiome and promote beneficial bacteria. They're non-toxic, vegan, and they taste just like candy, making it a lot more enticing for your kids! Available as a water additive or lozenge (mint) form.

Wishing you a happy halloween!
