Do you love to snack? We know there are countless snacks that you might crave – chips, candy, popcorn and the list goes on! However, when choosing your snack of choice don’t forget to think about your dental health. Need some tips for healthy “tooth friendly” snacks? We have your back!

The general rule of thumb is to avoid sugary or starchy snacks and to be mindful about how often you are snacking. If you are snacking often the acidity is constantly changing in your mouth. Remember, water is also your best friend!! It helps to stay hydrated and wash away any food debris clinging to your teeth.
