Dentist Fort Lee Skip Sugary Treats at Work

General Dentist in Fort Lee NJ Shows Why Desserts at Work can Cause Tooth Decay

 

Enjoying dessert in the middle of the day can be exciting, especially if it’s at work! Sometimes, nothing tastes better than a couple of cookies in between your three major meals. Unfortunately, indulging in these sweets on a daily basis can put you at serious risk for cavities, decay, and more. Your general dentist in Fort Lee NJ breaks down the importance of avoiding snacks throughout your workday, especially if it involves items like muffins, cupcakes, and any similar desserts.

 

For most adults, the only time that they consume anything sweet and sugary is at work. It’s common in a workplace to bring treats, popular desserts since it seen as ‘treating yourself’ as you’re working hard throughout the day. While it can certainly boost your mood, eating dessert during your workday can increase the risks of decay and obesity.

 

The reason for desserts being around the office is because the company wants to reward their employees and staff. Items like cake and brownies are delicious, but the lingering bacteria and sugar throughout your entire workday can quicken the process of cavities and other dental and oral damage.

 

Instead of desserts, we believe that substituting them with fruits and vegetables will reduce the number of candies, doughnuts, and cookies you eat during the day and even improve your oral health! Snacking can be a bad habit that increases bad habits and weight gain, so we want to make sure that you’re enjoying foods like carrots, celery, and grapes to share the idea that snacks and treats don’t have to always be desserts!

 

 To schedule an appointment with your general dentist in Fort Lee NJ in order to further protect your smile, call our office at (201) 461-5400.
