Halloween candy gets an enthusiastic welcome from Dr Gary Glassman, an endodontist with a soft spot for little chocolates. His comparison of chocolate and Rockets offers a practical way to weigh the treats in the bag.

The difference goes beyond sugar content. How long a sweet stays in the mouth gives Gary another reason to favour one treat over another. A joking request for an excuse to keep the parents' favourites turns into a revealing candy comparison.

The toothbrush has a timing question of its own. Gary names a waiting period after a sugar hit, then tackles the bedtime details: flossing order, water flossers and what belongs in a mouthwash. The Halloween haul comes with plenty to ask about afterward.

Topics: Halloween candy, chocolate, Rockets, brushing timing, oral fitness
