Soon you\u2019ll either hide the eggs or go scavenging for them. You might even enjoy the delicious candies throughout the day. However, you might want to know which ones could be detrimental to your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.centerdds.com\/general-dentistry.html\">oral hygiene<\/a>. Read on to learn four easter treats that can harm your teeth!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Candy #1: Cadbury Eggs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the most popular easter goodies are the Cadbury eggs\u2014chocolate covered cr\u00e8me or caramel egg-shaped candies. While these are certainly tasty, they also contain high amounts of sugar, which can damage your teeth and cause cavities. In addition, their filling usually consists of corn syrup which promotes serious health issues like obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Candy #2: Jellybeans<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While these candies can come in multiple fun flavors to enjoy, they are also sticky and chewy, meaning they can easily get stuck between your teeth. Without properly brushing and flossing, these sugary bits can end up remaining on your pearly whites. If left unchecked, they can allow for cavity-causing bacteria to damage your teeth enamel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Candy #3: Marshmallow Peeps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most people have seen the cute bunny marshmallow Peeps during Easter. Not only are they high in sugar content, but they also contain dyes that can stain your teeth. In addition to fighting off cavities or tooth decay, you\u2019ll probably also have to worry about discoloration and maintaining a white and clean smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Candy #4: Oversized Chocolate Bunnies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some oversized milk chocolate bunnies that can take a few days to finish eating. That\u2019s a lot of time spent with chewy, brown candy! By consuming chocolate over a long period of time, you increase your risk of exposing your enamel to acids and sugars. The more your teeth are covered in these harmful substances, the higher the likelihood of causing tooth decay in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Easter can be a fun time for the family, and it\u2019ll be beneficial in the long run to avoid certain goodies during this holiday. You could also practice good dental hygiene after munching on these treats to preserve and improve your smile!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Family Dental Center of East Texas offers outstanding and passionate dental services for the whole family.
