Last week, you may remember, we discussed October being National Orthodontic Health Month and listed a few foods Dr. Tina Siu wants you to stay away from this Halloween season, as well as during your time in braces.
All those sweet, sour and sticky candies may taste great, but these treats can damage your teeth and braces too! Did you know sour candies can be acidic to your teeth, and actually wear down the enamel that protects them? This can cause tooth decay and cavities!
Instead of candy, try these braces-friendly treats, courtesy of the American Association of Orthodontists.
