One thing you may not be preparing for is how to protect your teeth from the holiday season, but you should be. Many of the most damaging foods for dental health are consumed during the holidays, and we\u2019re not just talking about that pillowcase full of Halloween candy. The dentist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hillavenuedental.com\/\">Superior, WI<\/a> trusts, Hill Avenue Dental, is here to help you protect your teeth from cavity causing holiday cuisine. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hillavenuedental.com\/contact-us.html\">Call<\/a> to schedule an appointment today.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>Fight Your Cravings for these Cavity Causing Treats<\/h3>\n<p>We all look forward to the fall and winter when holiday treats, meals and desserts seem to roll in one after the other. Then New Year\u2019s comes around and we make our resolutions to reverse the weight gained during the holidays, but not many people resolve to undo the adverse dental effects of holiday eating. At Hill Avenue Dental, we emphasize <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hillavenuedental.com\/general-dentistry.html\">preventive dental<\/a> care to help you avoid the adverse effects of holiday eating. One of the best ways to avoid possible tooth decay is to avoid the foods that are most likely to cause it.<\/p>\n<h3>Some Holiday Favorites to Avoid<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Halloween candy \u2013 Kids can definitely overdo it when it comes to gorging on candy. The upset stomach may be more noticeable, but inside their mouths there\u2019s a sugar attack taking place. Odds are, your child\u2019s teeth will lose the battle.<\/li>\n<li>Wine, punch, and carbonated drinks \u2013 Even if you avoid these beverages throughout the year, chances are you will be tempted by the multiple offerings throughout the holiday season. It\u2019s okay to indulge periodically, but avoid sipping for hours on end letting sugars and acid sit in the mouth. Finish drinks within half an hour, and follow with water.<\/li>\n<li>Breads, pies, and pastas \u2013 All those white, fluffy, flour-filled favorites\u2026are actually sugar. Complex carbohydrates break down into simple sugars in the mouth leading to acid attack.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Tips from the Superior Dentist for Preventive Care<\/h3>\n<p>You shouldn\u2019t give up all your holiday favorites, but you can protect your teeth with a few helpful tips from your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hillavenuedental.com\/meet-the-dentists.html\">Superior Dentist<\/a>.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>After eating meals that are high in sugars and carbohydrates, brush your teeth. If you don\u2019t want to take the time to brush or carry a toothbrush around to visit relatives, consider using an antimicrobial mouth rinse after eating.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t drink carbonated or alcoholic beverages with meals. Drink water to help rinse sugars and foods from your mouth as you eat.<\/li>\n<li>If you\u2019re going to eat candies or drink carbonated beverages, do so in a short period of time and rinse your mouth out afterwards.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You don\u2019t have to say no to all your favorite treats. Just say no to dental decay and damage by improving your oral hygiene routine to account for the additional \u201csugar attacks.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Call Your Duluth Dentist to Find Out More<\/h3>\n<p>Patients from all of Northern Wisconsin and Northeastern Minnesota know that Hill Avenue Dental, both Drs.
