Lollipops, Cotton Candy, Toffee Apples and Hard Candy... we love 'em. But, do they love us?
Hard candies have been around for about 130 years. The industry continues to be one of the great innovators. These attractive rainbow coloured delights have us queuing up for more. Don't be surprised if at the end of the line is a person in a white coat saying "open wide". That person would be your dentist, benefiting from your candy infused cavities. As it happens, dentists and candy have a relationship that goes beyond just filling holes in teeth.
So three advisories:
1. Enjoy them.
2. Flush the sugar out of your mouth as soon as possible.
3. Pay attention as we list the other nasties that can also do damage.
