The Healthy Teeth Diet

Most people watch what they eat in order to lose weight or help get fit. Processed, fat, and sugary foods are avoided because they have a negative effect on our health. On the flip side, whole foods take the place of these bad foods. These help provide nutrients our bodies need to stay healthy and strong. The foods you eat have a similar effect on your teeth. Sugary foods can cause decay, and your teeth need certain vitamins and minerals to stay strong and repair themselves.

Changing the foods you eat can have a positive effect on your overall health while boosting the strength of your teeth. Healthier teeth means less of a need for dental restoration and other costly procedures that are preventable.
