In a recent article in Oregon Dental Association's Membership Matters, Janet Peterson, DMD offered some tips on wellness for kids.

1. Too much juice is just as bad as soda.  Juices have sugar, just like soda.  Too much can be harmful to your child's teeth
   
   
2. Drinks with reclosable caps, such as bottles, can increase how often teeth are exposed to sugary beverages.  Children are more likely to sip on soda longer from bottles than from cans.
