Best Choice of Sweets for Children’s Teeth

Children love a treat but unfortunately tend to opt for those sweets that are most harmful to their teeth. All sweets contain sugars and sweeteners — and these play a big role in tooth enamel damage and cavities. 

While no sweets can be deemed as “safe” for teeth, these are the least harmful:

• Chocolate
• Granola or bars containing nuts
• Sugar-free gum

Children’s exposure to sweets should be rationed or only enjoyed on special occasions in order to keep the dentist happy and avoid serious issues with their teeth and dental health.
