What foods are good for your teeth: a dentist's answer
Keeping your teeth healthy is easier if you provide your body with the necessary vitamins and minerals. But what exactly should you eat to get all the useful elements?
Dentist Diana Levchuk spoke about this in detail, writes the Izvestia publication.
She stressed that for healthy teeth you need to choose products that contain fluoride and calcium.
Here we are talking about fish, walnuts, dairy, cheese, beans, green vegetables. In addition, sesame, almonds and bread will be useful, but only the one made from coarse flour.
We must remember the benefits of legumes, eggs, meat and seafood, which contain iron and vitamin B12.
Vitamin C is also important.
The required amount of this element can be found in citrus fruits, tomatoes, cabbage, currants and apples.
Levchuk emphasized the benefits of solid food, noting that such food provides the necessary chewing load, removes plaque, and massages the gums.
It is important to remember that healthy foods do not contain sugar. Also, do not overdo it with salt, which removes calcium. Caffeine and alcohol also have a negative effect on the body.
