Halloween can be one of the most fun holidays that people celebrate. It is also one that we can enjoy in smaller ways before and after the day itself. In the weeks leading up to the actual holiday, you can find yourself pecking away at the Halloween candy you have set aside for trick-or-treaters. You can also find that you and your family have an abundance of goodies to enjoy after your kids take home their own hauls after going out to celebrate the season. A higher intake of sugar can raise your risk for dental decay, which means you are more likely to need restorative work from your Riverside, CA dentist. However, this does not mean you have to simply accept that you will have cavity trouble at this time of year! The right daily behaviors, along with a commitment to professional smile care, can help you avoid the consequences of this problem in the long term. (more…)
