Valentine’s Day is all about romance, sweet desserts, and yummy candies–all of which we use to show someone just how much we care about them.
The most romantic day of the year is also a source of concern for people with braces who believe it’s impossible for them to have a great time with their loved ones. But you will be happy to know the reality is entirely different. Check out how we debunk this myth about braces and chocolate!
Chocolate is a safer choice than other types of desserts because it is not too sticky, hard, or coated in sugar. The best option is to eat soft chocolate and please avoid chocolate bars with peanuts, fruit, caramel, and nuts.
Spend this Valentine’s Day having a great time with a loved one. Treat yourself with yummy dessert, but don’t forget the importance of moderation and good dental hygiene practices.
Warmly,
Dr. Cathy Wiltshire and Team
