14 Mind-Blowing Things You Didn’t Know About Halloween Candy

How much Americans really spend on Halloween, the history of “fun size” candy, and more sweet facts about your favorite Halloween treats.

A lot of people hand out Halloween candy

Of the 157 million people who participate in Halloween, more than 141 million buy candy. That’s almost 45 percent of the entire U.S. population filling plastic pumpkins and pillowcases with sugary goodness. This is what 100 calories of your favorite Halloween candy looks like.

The most popular Halloween candy is…

Reese’s. According to USA Today, peanut butter cup sales neared $510 million in 2013. It’s also the most popular candy in the most populated states: California and Texas. M&M’s came in a close second with more than $500 million in sales in 2013.

Halloween candy is expensive

Consumers spend an average of $2.1 billion on Halloween candy each year, or about $47 per American. As a comparison, they collectively spend $2.6 billion on costumes and $330 million dressing up their pets.

Halloween is not the best holiday for candy sales

Taking good care of your mouth, teeth, and gums is a worthy goal in and of itself. Good oral and dental hygiene can help prevent bad breath, tooth decay, and gum disease – and can help you keep your teeth as you get older. However, it’s also important to understand the link between oral health and diseases such as Endocarditis, Cardiovascular disease, and Osteoporosis.

“Healthy Habits are Easier than You Think,” Did you know that October is National Dental Hygiene Month? Why not let us help you focus on maintaining optimal oral health while leading a busy, active lifestyle.

New Patient Exam

Outstanding Care for a Lifetime of Optimal Oral Health

Thank you for choosing the office of Dr. Robert Mitchell for your family’s dental care. Our entire team values the opportunity to give you the personalized attention and beautiful, healthy smile you deserve.

We’ll dedicate two hours for your new patient exam. When you arrive, we’ll give you a tour of our dental office and introduce you to our team. Refreshments are available for your enjoyment, as are Bose music headphones, movie goggles, massagers, and comfortable blankets, hot and cold neck pillows, and warm, scented towels.

Assessing Your Teeth, Gums, and Bite

We will talk to you about your dental needs and the reason for your visit. Then Dr. Mitchell will conduct a thorough exam which will include checking your bite alignment, assessing the integrity of existing dental work, and scanning your teeth for decay using our non-invasive DIAGNOdent laser. About 80% of the population unknowingly has some form of periodontal disease, so we will examine your gums for signs of this stealthy offender and suggest therapies for prevention or treatment. A set of digital X-rays will provide a complete picture of your oral health and aid in accurate diagnosis.

Screening for Oral Cancer

We will check your soft tissues for signs of oral cancer. We use a state-of-the-art tool called Velscope to identify suspicious lesions in the earliest stages. Oral cancer claims the lives of 7,500 Americans each year and often goes undetected until it has spread to the neck and lymph nodes. Early detection increases survival chances, so we will screen you for oral cancer at your new patient exam and subsequent checkups.

We would love to schedule an New Patient Evaluation for you!!!

Please call 972-233-1311 and schedule today.
