Foods to Eat for a Healthy Mouth

Wanting to improve your smile by stuffing your face? Here are several foods that can improve your teeth’s overall health.

  • Nuts, Cheese, meat, and milk:  protect enamel by supplying the calcium and phosphorus your teeth need.
  • Milk: lots of calcium and vitamin D- both are crucial for your teeth.
  • Apples and Pears: These fruits contain a lot of water which stifles the effects of sugar and generates a flow of saliva.
  • Black/Green tea: contain the antioxidant plant compound that keeps tarter buildup on your teeth and reduces your chance of getting gingivitis and cavities.
  • Good ol’ H20 : Keeping your teeth moist helps flush acids away. The bacteria and fluoride in water provides tooth enamel with strength.
