Halloween Safety Tips, from Diehl Orthodontics

Trick-or-treat! Not only is October National Orthodontic Health Month, but it is also a time for costumes, pumpkin carving, and Halloween. In honor of October’s sweet and spooky holiday, Halloween, the American Association of Orthodontists has provided trick-or-treaters with some tips for a ghoulishly good time!

With Halloween only two weeks away, Dr. Diehl would like to share a few trick-or-treating safety guidelines, courtesy of the AAO:

• Young children should always be accompanied by an adult
• Carry a flashlight
• Wear a light-colored or reflective costume
• Choose face paint over masks for young ghosts and goblins
• Have an adult inspect all treats before the children dig in
