Summer is already waving goodbye, but with it remains the time of delicious vices. To keep your teeth healthy even during this active period, take care of proper dental and oral hygiene.
- 💡 Use soft toothbrushes, use natural toothpastes without fluoride. Avoid smoking, starchy foods, citrus fruits, acidic foods and drinks, and sweet and salty snacks. This type of food is not only unhealthy, but we also "feed" and create dental plaque, which can cause real destruction in our mouths.
- 🥗 Enjoy fiber-rich fruits and vegetables, they are chewed for a longer time, and also increase the flow of saliva - its sufficient amount prevents bacteria from developing and starting to form dental plaque.
- 🌊 Let's not forget sufficient amounts of water, this clear liquid is very important for the health of teeth and gums. By regularly rinsing the mouth, we help to wash away the acidity and the rest of the food eaten.
- 🍏 Apples are great for our teeth, as they contain a lot of fiber and nutrients. It is preferable not to peel them before eating. After all, the shell is full of fiber, which helps us "clean" the remains and traces left behind by other dishes. But be careful, because even apples contain acid and sugar, which destroy enamel. That is why it is advisable to brush your teeth after consuming them, or at least rinse with water if you don't have a toothbrush at hand.
- 🍉 Watermelon consists of 90 percent water, and the rest is fiber, which has a positive effect on digestion. In addition, watermelon hides a lot of vitamin A, which is important in the fight against viral infections.
- 🥜 Nuts have a low level of sugar content, and due to their low content of unsaturated fats, they help to prevent gum disease. Many nuts also contain significant amounts of calcium and phosphorus, which help strengthen teeth.
- 🥬 Despite its green color, stem green does not contain such pigments that would leave colored marks on the surface of the teeth. It has a high water content, which stimulates the production of saliva in the mouth. Vegetable fibers during chewing also help in cleaning the teeth.
- ✨The mouth's best friend is food that neutralizes acids, provides minerals and vitamins to restore enamel, and stimulates saliva production.
The CH team wishes you a nice and healthy start to the productive season ahead ;)
