Enjoy Halloween with Invisalign and Traditional Braces

Since most kids (and adults) are looking forward to Halloween at the end of the month, we’ve put together some tips so you can still enjoy the holiday while also being mindful of your orthodontic health! Avoiding some candy and enjoying others can help you stay on track with your Invisalign or traditional braces.

• Be careful with popcorn and popcorn balls – the kernels and pieces can get lodged in your braces.
