With New Year’s right around the corner, it is time for the world to draft up their new list of resolutions for the upcoming year. With 2018 only days away, it is a perfect time for a fresh start and new beginnings, and we can’t think of a better time to put your oral health and focus. In the new year, these are the foods you should be getting more of to keep your smile glistening, your oral health in great shape, & your dentist very, very happy.
Cheese
Although you might be trying to cut cheese out for dietary reasons, the calcium content in cheese makes this delectable food gives great benefits to your teeth. Calcium helps maintain strong enamel – a trait you need from food to keep your teeth healthy.
Apples
We’ve all heard the saying, an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Well, it also keeps the dentist from finding cavities! Apples are great snacking choices, as they are high in water containment, which helps wash away the surface of the enamel, eradicating the possibility of any sugar damaging your precious enamel.
Strawberries
Not only do strawberries give your mouth a great boost of necessary vitamins and nutrients, they also remove plaque from your teeth, making them whiter!
Although no food will replace the necessity of dental check ups, eating more of these three foods will definitely help you boost your oral whole game. Interested in speaking to one of our doctors about other great oral health tips? Give Dental Center of Mesa a call today at (480) 834-9001!
