Braces Friendly Stocking a Good Addition to Christmas

Mom and dad, how disappointed is your child going to be when she opens her stocking and it’s full of candy? Candy she shouldn’t be eating.

With just a little bit of effort you can make a braces-friendly stocking.

Here are something you could put in that socking. Toss the candy canes and the Hershey Kisses.

Try these ideas:

• Enough sugar free gum to last through Easter.
• Dental Wax
• A frame with a “before” braces picture on one side and blank spot for the after picture when the braces come off.
• A certificate for a meal she can’t eat now, but can look forward to when the braces come off.
• Chap stick
• Go gurt
• Fruits
• Fun and colorful tooth brushes
• Mouthwash
• A small blender she can use to liquefy hard-to-chew fruits.

This will give your child a memorable Christmas. This will add some positive feeling toward this time in her life.
