Halloween and Your Family’s Teeth

Halloween is full of ghastly ghouls, spooky spirits, and tasty treats. But when the fun dies down after visiting haunted houses and trick-or-treating, what’s left are bags full of sugar and rock hard candies that can severely damage you and your children’s teeth. Dr. Michael Adler provides family dentistry options in the Boulder area to help clean away those bits of chewy candy and fix any damage made by the likes of hard Sour Balls and Gobstoppers.

With so many types of candy on the market there are numerous ways for your teeth and gums to be negatively impacted after a Halloween candy binge. At Adler Advanced Dentistry we offer emergency dentistry for the whole family to take care of:

• Fractured or broken teeth
• Chipped teeth
• Toothaches
• Jaw swelling

It’s always important to make sure your family practices good oral hygiene, but during this time of year it’s extra important to keep your family’s smile healthy and intact. Our Boulder family dentistry facility uses the most effective treatments, including holistic options, for all of our patients. But especially around Halloween, we encourage good dental hygiene practices at home including:

• Brushing twice a day
• Flossing everyday
• Eating healthy with plenty of organic vegetables, fats, and proteins

If you live in or near the Boulder area and need to fix a Halloween candy-related tooth issue or want to schedule a cleaning for your family, call Adler Advanced Dentistry at today.
