Protect Your Teeth with These Foods
Previously I have told you about how a balanced diet is useful for our teeth health. Today I am giving you a handy list of all such protective foods that actually safeguard our teeth from decay. Here it is: Fresh fruits, vegetables, low sugar cereals with milk, yogurt, cheese, nuts, sugar-free juice, peanut butter, whole grain breads and pasta and popcorn. Keep in mind to avoid those foods that you are intolerant to such as nuts. Also, some of these food items like popcorn are not suitable for infants up to 2 years old as they cannot chew them properly.

Good post – thank you for the insightful and informative article. I have had many dental operations over the years and find that drinking many glasses of water will significantly speed up recovery time.

Hi,
Read this article,and after getting advice from my family doctor about “Yogurt”,I preferred it.
“Yogurt is easier to digest than milk.Many people who cannot tolerate milk, either because of a protein allergy or lactose intolerance,can enjoy yogurt.”
Thank You

I think to find out the causes of gum disease is more important than their treatment. In today world people are expending more on money on treatment instead off finding there causes.

Some good information here that I would love to add to. Great foods for keeping your teeth white are foods like broccoli, cauliflower, etc. Also, strawberries have whitening agents in them! So eating strawberries can actually help whiten your teeth.

Isnt the problem with fruits that they contain acid too and in huge amounts could damage the teeth? Just curious cause I was thinking about that…

Have been interested in teeth whitening for a while now cause my teeth are really horrible. Tried various tooth pastes and so but nothing really worked.
Even created a small dutch blog about teeth whitening. Its not really popular here. If you speak any dutch check it out here: Tanden bleachen
Love your blog! Tons of information. Thanks for your article keep it up!

Yes very right as the blog has mentioned food play a greet role in our health and most of the teeth problems can be fixed with healthy eating habits.Eating fresh vegetables and fruits like carrots, broccoli, celery, apples, strawberries, and cucumbers can help whiten your teeth naturally.

Food can harm your teeth but in some instances so can water. This is especially true with sparkling water.

Thank you for this insightful article. I have had that Root Canal Therapy before which gave me such a big problem because some foods I’ve eaten does irritate my gums and slows down recovery time. Also I now know that water therapy can be good and bad as well especially carbonated water/ sparkling water.

This is a very useful post. It is very important to know which foods can protect your teeth, thus preventing teeth problems.
October 15th, 2010 at 12:47 am
I agree that fruits can help protect teeth, besides people should eat more apples and strawberries, because they help in teeth whitening
November 12th, 2010 at 2:50 pm
I totally agree. There is no better solution to white teeth than simply taking care of them.
Since we are surrounded by so many “chemically” filled drinks and foods our teeth get “attacked” even more.
So not only is it healthier for you to eat these things (for your body), it’s also extremely healthy for your teeth seeing as they don’t take as much abuse.
Great post, thanks for opening the eyes of many

I also use this way for teeth whitening, I eating lemon, strawberty ant etc.
May 11th, 2011 at 2:30 pm
I also heard about strawberries but the contain acid which in long term can damage teeth enamel. It’s ok when eaten but it’s not recommended as a home whitening method (just like lemon).
June 8th, 2011 at 6:55 pm
I love fruit for this reason. So great for your teeth!
