Halloween “Treats” May Really be “Tricks

Making Smiles Inside & Out

Playing toy with kids
  • Robert Stoner Orthodontics
  • October 17, 2017

Halloween Treats…You have all heard about the damage that sugar and certain “sticky” candies can do to your teeth and your braces when undergoing orthodontic treatment. Well, our Team at Robert Stoner Orthodontics wants to remind all of our patients and future patients about the dangers one more time. We know Halloween is supposed to be a fun time of year for kids of all ages… but it can turn into a “nightmare” of damaged braces for kids and parents if the wrong types of treats are consumed. Not only the discomfort involved as a result of broken wires and brackets but also the inconvenience of coming office for an extra visit with your busy school and/or work schedules.

Here at Robert Stoner Orthodontics in Greensboro and Summerfield NC, we love Halloween treats but we also have a responsibility to increase the awareness of potential damage certain candies can cause if patients are not careful about which treats to eat. Click here to download a Do’s and Don’ts Treat List offered by the American Association of Orthodontists. As a reminder, print it off and post in on your refrigerator for all to see.

So…go ahead and enjoy your treats. But PLEASE be sure they are orthodontic and dental friendly treats.

Follow the list and save candy you can eat and give away treats that will harm your braces to friends and family. A few sweets can be OK occasionally, whether wearing braces or not, as long as you brush and floss well after eating.

We want everyone to enjoy their Halloween treats…but we also want you to protect the investment you and your family has made in helping us create a beautiful smile that lasts a lifetime.

What are your thoughts about asking patients to give up treats that damage their braces during Halloween? Please leave your comments below. Now is the time to vent….

110% would recommend Dr. Stoner and team!! They made a long invisalign process so much less stressful by being open communicators and always super friendly.
Ashleigh F.
Whew! Where do I start?! First of all Dr Stoner is AMAZING!! So friendly so personable and professional. I was in bad shape when I came in 2023 and him and his entire team took care of me from the beginning. I just finished my Angel Aligner treatment and I’m completely speechless. Moved to Vegas and they still made sure my treatment was flawless!! He’s a true perfectionist so just trust the process. I love my smile so much and truly recommend if you want top tier orthodontic treatment. Ashley Lindsay Ali Leslee Meredith omg I can’t name you all! From front desk to treatment floor I cannot thank you all enough. Fighting tears as I type this❤️
