Treat for

Halloween can be a
dangerous time for teeth
since sugar is hidden in most
Halloween treats. When
sugar combines with dental
plaque harmful acids are
produced by the bacteria
which can result in tooth

contribute to poor dental
health so the British
Columbia Dental Hygienists’
Association Offers the
following suggestions to
minjmize the dental effects
of Halloween.

that it is not the quantity of

tooth decay such as: nuts,
