Eat Right to Enjoy Good Dental Health

For good dental health, you must eat right. You must avoid eating foods that contain too much of sugar and starch as these can produce acid in your mouth. These acids can cause cavities and can lead to gum disease and other dental problems.

To avoid tooth decay and gum diseases, you must avoid snacking on candies, chocolates, cookies, cakes, pies, and gums. Hard candies are even more harmful for your teeth as they stick onto the teeth and stay in your mouth for longer. You can eat sugary treats but try to have them in moderation. Further, you must brush your teeth after having candies and chocolates or cakes and pies.

Starchy foods like potato chips, crackers, and breadsticks are also harmful for teeth as they stick to the teeth. For the same reason you must avoid eating dried fruits and raisins.

For good dental health, eat a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables. They are rich in Vitamins and minerals and help in strengthening your teeth. Consume dairy products like milk, cheese, and yoghurt, and intake eggs, soya, and poultry to provide your teeth with calcium and protein.
