Enjoy your Easter Eggs but Keep your Teeth Cavity-Free!

Did you know that chocolate equals sugar in terms of oral health?
By all means, indulge in Easter eggs this Easter but remember to clean your teeth. Here are some tips:

1. Limit chocolate to meal times only and consume in moderation. Children may need to be reminded about this. Adults, too!
2. Substitute chocolate with low sugar alternatives.
3. Don’t eat chocolate just before bedtime.
4. Rinse your mouth with water after eating sugary food and drink plenty of water.
5. Practice good oral hygiene and brush your teeth twice a day.
