Too much added sugar can put kids and teens at risk. According to the Centers for Disease Control, “Sugary drinks are the leading source of added sugars in the American diet.” And the CDC also warns that, “children younger than 2 years should not have any added sugars in their diet.”
Dr. Breanne Reid, pediatric dentist at Great Smiles PDO, is amplifying those concerns this month on The North County Moms’ platforms. Print, pin or post Dr. Brea’s graphic below as a reminder to eliminate or reduce your family’s consumption of sugary beverages.
Dr. Brea welcomes new patients into her combined pediatric dentistry and orthodontic practice. With locations in both Solana Beach and Carlsbad, the offices are fun destinations for kids to visit despite the serious focus on dental health. First visits for children under two years are complimentary at Great Smiles Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics.
