Magee Family Dental Care is located in Magee, Mississippi. When asked if someone could speak to GCS about dental care, Amanda, a Dental Hygienist, immediately accepted the opportunity to share tips for dental care with our students.

“Students should avoid sugary foods, juices and candy…. especially sticky gummy candy, gummy vitamins, fruit leather or roll-ups,” says Amanda. These can erode enamel and cause cavities.

If you eat these foods, rinse your mouth or brush your teeth after eating to wash away the sugar. The same goes for taking sweetened liquid medicines. Always rinse or brush afterwards.
