Proper nutrition can benefit you in many ways: increased energy, improved immunity, glowing skin, mental clarity, and a lower risk of heart disease and stroke. At Ray McKinley DDS & Brittany McKinley-Holloway DDS — McKinley General, Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry in Shelby Township we ask: How often do you consider how your diet affects your dental health?
Your diet influences your risk of cavities, enamel health, and gum condition. Healthy foods can help you avoid inflammation and infection. Vegetables, fruits, legumes, and nuts are good choices. Calcium-fortified beverages, milk, and other dairy products provide vitamins and minerals that aid in keeping teeth, bones, and gums healthy. Crispy fruits and vegetables, such as apples and celery, will help clean your teeth and gums.
A healthy diet contains all the vital vitamins and minerals, and the most important for teeth is fluoride – especially for kids. Between the ages of 6 months and 16 years old, both the primary and the permanent teeth come in, therefore adequate fluoride is critical.
