October is National Orthodontic Health Month! In a month full of hard, sticky and chewy treats, it’s more important than ever to encourage patients to be kind to their teeth during treatment. If you have braces, avoid caramel, taffy, bubblegum, and candy with nuts. If you can’t keep yourself away from the sugar, opt for softer candy such as peanut butter cups or other melt-in-your-mouth treats.
