your diet includes these foods

in your diet, which helps to form new bone cells
in the body.

Include some milk and cheese every day to ensure
that you get enough of this tooth-strengthening
mineral.

Crunchy fruits Apples and pears produce
nutrients with a bit of satisfying crunch.

These fruits have a high water content, which
helps to dilute the sugar that they also contain.

Raw carrots and celery These vegetables are
not just healthy snacks for weight management

They are also rich in nutrients and also increase
the amount of saliva in the mouth, which helps to
clean off teeth.

Nuts and seeds These foods are high in
nutrients and are good for overall health.

In addition, cashews have strong antimicrobial
properties, which can help to prevent the
bacteria that cause cavities in teeth.

Raw onion Go ahead and enjoy that raw onion
on your burger.

Onions have been found to be a powerful
anti-bacterial, which can help to prevent
cavities from developing on your teeth.

Foods To Avoid

Coffee Cosmetic dentists often tell their
patients to limit the amount of coffee they
consume to avoid the inevitable staining that
occurs.

well after drinking it or rinse with clear water.

Citrus fruits Grapefruit juice, orange juice
and lemon juice are all highly acidic and can

mouth well with plain water to reduce the effect
of the acids.
