When we think of Easter, two things often come to mind – the Easter Bunny and chocolate. Who doesn’t like to indulge in a little chocolate after all?!
It’s fine to enjoy some treats, but it is always a good idea to spend a bit more to get higher quality chocolate that will be better for your health AND your teeth!
Choose dark chocolate that has a cocoa percentage of 70% and above. Benefits of dark chocolate include:
Cheap chocolate is oozing with sugar, not to mention if often full of wax which enables it to maintain it’s shape. The wax also prevents it from melting. While milk chocolate and white chocolate can taste good, they also have a much higher amount of sugar.
So choose wisely and be sure to brush thoroughly after treating yourself.
