Can you believe it’s already October? For those who don’t know, it’s National Orthodontic Health Month. This month-long event is organized by our friends at the American Association of Orthodontists, or AAO.
Miller Orthodontics realizes that this is a great opportunity for us to raise awareness about the importance of oral hygiene. National Orthodontic Health Month also aims to recognize the dedicated work of orthodontists and other dental professionals.
The AAO recommends patients avoid the following Halloween treats, or recipes with these ingredients:
Caramel
Nuts
Popcorn (including un-popped kernels)
Taffy
Jelly beans
Hard pretzels
Licorice
Bubblegum
Ice
