You’re just weeks away from the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. That means an extended grocery list for Thanksgiving dinner. It means coupon clipping for Black Friday bargains. And it means tidying up the house for all those extra guests who are coming to visit soon.

It can get pretty hectic!

The holidays are one of the busiest times of the year, but it’s mainly a good kind of busy. A delightful anticipation of seeing distant relatives and spending quality time with close family and friends. And the food… oh, the food!

But that’s where the anticipation stops for many people who are struggling with missing teeth.

At  Times Square Dental,

we want you to feel like you’re in control of your dental care and your oral health.

That’s why we strive to give patients options when they come to our Boise, ID dental office. Listen to Dr. Dial explain more about our philosophy here at Times Square Dental.

This is a busy time of year for us at Times Square Dental. That’s because it hovers over that midpoint on the calendar that many people use to time their dental cleanings and exams. Since we recommend you schedule those regular checkups about twice a year, we see many of our patients when fall rolls around.

It also happens to be an exciting time for fear enthusiasts! You know who you are. You can be found throughout the month of October standing in line for a haunted house. Or maybe you’re standing in the concession line at the local movie theatre to catch the latest slasher film.

The month of October invites some of the best sensory pleasures life has to offer. The smell of clean, cool autumn air, the extraordinary beauty of the changing leaves, and the crisp fall sweater weather… it’s heaven!

But wait… we forgot one very important thing: CANDY! Halloween is one of the few excuses we get to use to indulge our sweet tooth. It’s a delicious joyride on the sugar train! All the favorites of your childhood, Snickers, Reese Cups, Starburst, and Skittles, bring the warm, happy memories of trick-or-treating back to life.

This is one of the best parts about Halloween season! But if you have dental pain because of missing teeth, eating seasonal sweets it’s hardly what you’d consider fun. In fact, it’s the exact opposite!

There’s a game that’s often used to demonstrate how the truth can easily become distorted as it’s passed from person to person. It’s a pretty popular game, and maybe it’s one you’ve played before. Sometimes it’s called The Telephone Game. Other people refer to it as The Rumor Game.

It may be called something different, but the rules are always the same. Everyone forms a circle, and a facilitator will secretly give one person in the circle a message. It can be whispered in their ear or handed to them on a small piece of paper.

Trick-or-treating is just a couple of weeks away, so our team at Times Square Dental wants to help you keep their teeth healthy!

Today, we’re sharing some helpful hints for a healthy Halloween smile despite all the candy the little ones will be collecting soon! As always, you can count on our team in Boise, ID to keep all the smiles in your family healthy and strong!
