Diet & Dental Health

What you eat and drink has a direct impact on your teeth. Knowing which foods help and which to limit — and keeping to regular meals — goes a long way toward preventing tooth decay.

The foods to avoid for healthier teeth are the fairly obvious ones that are bad for your overall health, including sugar and starch. Don’t sip on sugary beverages and avoid sugar-filled gum.

Keep yourself hydrated throughout the day by drinking plenty of water. Consume fresh fruits and vegetables. Fruit juices that are high in sugar are best avoided. Eating yoghurt can also help.

One of the most important things you can do for your teeth is keeping to a regular meal schedule. Snacking throughout the day can cause issues because of the sugary and hard nature of snacks.

We recommend educating yourself on food’s impact on teeth so you can avoid potential tooth decay. If you have a question about oral health, give us a call.
