Dental Diet, food and drink for healthy teeth.

Описание: Dental Diet, food and drink for healthy teeth.

Every time you eat or drink anything containing sugar, your teeth are under acid attack for up to one hour. This is because the sugar reacts with the bacteria in plaque (the sticky coating on your teeth) and produces harmful acids. It is important to have sugary foods or drinks just at mealtimes so you limit the amount of time your mouth is at risk.

Acidic foods and drinks can be just as harmful. The acid erodes or dissolves the enamel, exposing the dentine underneath. This can make your teeth sensitive and unsightly.

A diet that is rich in vitamins, minerals and fresh fruit and vegetables can help to prevent gum disease. Gum disease can lead to tooth loss and cause bad breath.
