In order to maintain good dental health,
you should visit your dentist regularly every 6 months, but it is also
important to maintain a healthy diet and good nutrition. It is important to eat
from all of the food groups, including grains, vegetables, fruits, milk,
meats/beans and eat some extras sparingly, like oils and fats. A balanced diet
is very important in helping to prevent cavities and have whiter teeth.
Cavities are a result of what we eat and how often those foods are eaten.
Eating apples, celery and carrots can help
remove plaque. If you do eat sweets with sugar in it immediately brush after
eating the sweets and this will help prevent cavities. Also, another
interesting fact is that sweets are less harmful to teeth if eaten with a main
meal, rather than between meals. Table sugar is more harmful to teeth than
sugars that occur naturally in fruits and milk.
Food choices that are more nutritious for
teeth include the following, fruits, vegetables, berries, carrots, nuts,
tomatoes, yogurt, chicken, eggs, melons, turkey, salad, pineapple, pumpkin
seeds, pears, cereal (that is not high in sugar), sunflower seeds, popcorn,
oranges, pizza, tacos, cheese, celery and sugar free gum/soda.
Eat Healthy Food - Healthy food is great
for keeping your whole body healthy, not just your mouth, but it is far better
for your teeth than junk food or fatty food. Try to make sure you are getting
your required portions of fruit and vegetables every day because this can not only
help to prevent certain medical conditions occurring but it can really make
your body last for longer and feel alive.
You can buy dental instruments from internet.
