Trick-or-treating may only last one night, but Halloween candy is readily available long before and after the little ghosts and goblins have roamed the neighborhood.

From classroom parties to fall festivals to Halloween night itself, you and your family may be consuming much more sugar for a few weeks as a result.

Does that mean your teeth are doomed to suffer decay and other problems?

Not necessarily!

Take a look at today’s infographic for a few helpful tips on how you can protect your family’s smiles during the spooky season of sugary treats so they don’t lead to all sorts of oral health tricks!

You can also pay us a visit for a dental cleaning and exam after Halloween to make sure your teeth and gums are bright and healthy heading into the holiday season. Call Drs. Yung & Jelinek today at 540-386-1943 or schedule online for an appointment in Warrenton, VA.
