We know that you don’t want your dentist to have nightmares on Halloween, so we came up with a list of things that give dentists nightmares, so you can avoid doing them.

Things that Give Your Dentist Nightmares

  • The mere thought of children eating mounds of sticky candy like caramels and tootsie rolls gives a dentist dreams of giant cavity monsters!
  • The image of children falling asleep, exhausted from Trick or Treating with a lollipop in their mouths make dentist wake up in sweats!
  • The thought of a child eating a big ball of sticky sweet pop corn can keep him awake altogether.
  • The thought of that same popcorn eating child not flossing before bedtime, well you can only imagine the horrors they see in their dreams!
  • When he or she finally falls asleep they see children grabbing boxes of jujubes and fruit leather from the bowl left on someone’s porch in their dreams and they wake up with a start!
