KEEPING
A HEALTHY DIET
Eating
a well-balanced diet is good for your oral health and general well
being. Smoking and eating sugary foods are some of the major causes
of dental diseases.
Be sure to brush your teeth after eating sweets, and try to eat sweets with a meal because increased flow of saliva during a meal will help to dilute the sugar. If you can’t brush after eating sweets, try chewing on a piece of sugarless gum. Also try to eat more fruits and vegetables, and drink water instead of soda. Healthy eating habits will go a long way towards improving how you feel and how your smile looks!
