Have Your Dessert! (If You Must)

Have Your Dessert and Dental Cleanings in Longmont.

At Twin Peaks Family Dentistry we know that few people can abstain from sweets altogether. If you can abstain, kudos to you. If you can’t, be aware that eating sweets at certain times is better for your teeth than others. For instance, when you eat a full meal, your saliva production increases. Saliva rinses food fragments off of teeth and helps neutralize acids.

If You Must Indulge: Understand the Importance of Timing

This is great news for dessert lovers because it means that sweets consumed after meals have a lower risk to your teeth because your mouth is already in optimum cleansing mode. If you must indulge, it’s better to have sweets with a meal.

Not all Treats are Created Equal

Furthermore, remember that the type of treat is as important as when you eat it. Dentists are constantly reminding their dental patients that sticky candies stay on your teeth for a long time, even when your saliva is flowing. And hard candies that you suck for an extended time give bacteria a perfect environment to create harmful enamel-weakening acids. If you pair candy with sugar-laden soda, the assault on your teeth is even more harmful
