Holidays and Sugar.....

Holidays are such a fun time of year getting together with friends and family and eating the most delicious foods!!! The holidays are the peak season for broken teeth and toothaches as well, believe it or not!  Amidst the peppermint bark, fudge, and peanut brittle are broken teeth and decay, but it doesn't mean you can't enjoy your holiday treats, here are a couple suggestions to keeping your pearly whites looking and functioning their best:

1.  Take small bites
2. Rinse or drink water after having sweets so that the sugar is not just sitting on your teeth
3. Floss and brush well before bed
4. Indulge in moderation

Here's some pictures of my holiday baking extravaganza!  What are your favorite holiday treats?  I love sugar cookies!!!!

Happy Holidays!!!!
