Easter is a time for celebrations, family reunions, and, of course, plenty of treats! While enjoying your Easter treats, remember your oral health. Kitchener Dentist Fairway Dental is committed to helping you maintain a healthy smile all year. Follow these Good Friday rules to celebrate Easter without harming your dental health.
Choose Your Sweets Wisely
Easter baskets are occasionally filled with sweet items that might be harmful to your teeth. To protect your smile, select chocolate over sticky or hard confectionery. Chocolate dissolves quickly in your mouth, reducing the time sugar comes into touch with your teeth. Dark chocolate is an even better option because it contains less sugar than milk chocolate.
Stay Hydrated with Water
Drinking plenty of water, especially after eating sweets, will help to remove the sugar and food particles that create cavities. Water also stimulates saliva production, which helps preserve your teeth by neutralizing acids and mending early signs of decay.
Maintain Your Oral Care Routine
Do not let the holidays disrupt your usual oral hygiene practice. Brush your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and floss at least once daily. This program provides the most efficient prevention against tooth decay and gum disease.
Enjoy in Moderation
It’s great to indulge in Easter treats, but only in moderation. To limit your sugar intake, try eating sweets at specific times and brushing your teeth afterward.
