Knockout Sugar, Keep Your Teeth
While some dental experts say you should brush your teeth after every meal – others have found that Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner foods containing sugar do not pose a problem. Your mouth produces more saliva while eating; the saliva acts as a good mouthwash cleaning tiny food bits from between your teeth.
Yes, brushing is important – but flossing is a key to keeping those sugary particles from eating away at your teeth. It is recommended that you should brush twice a day minimum. Most flossing fanatics will floss daily, but once or twice a week will usually do the job.
Stay away from candy and choose a dairy product as a snack. Cheese and just about every milk product, even yogurt contains nothing that can harm your teeth. Plus you will get a dose of Calcium from all the milk products, which has been proven to help bones and those pearly whites – your teeth.
So limit your sugar intake, brush and floss your teeth regularly and visit your dentist at least once a year. Although visiting your dentist may be an expensive undertaking if you are without Dental Insurance you can find many discounted dental plans that will help cover the costs of your dental visits.Â
