Trick or Treat! What Kinds of Candy Can I Eat?

Halloween Candy Do’s & Don’ts

Halloween can be tricky when you have braces—but it doesn’t have to be! That’s why Morita Orthodontics put together a little cheat sheet of treats you can eat and ones you should avoid while celebrating Halloween. That way, you’ll be prepared and can strategize about which candies to go after and which ones you’ll want to trade at the end of the night. We hope this blog will help you enjoy Halloween without damaging your braces. Whatever you do, just don’t bite into a big caramel apple!
