Our teeth are one of the most important tools we
have as humans. They are responsible for a number of things, but one of the
biggest things they help us do is EAT. And we love to eat. But, with all that
we put into our mouths to be broken down by our teeth so that we can swallow,
have you ever thought about what foods may actually strengthen our teeth? If
you’re like me, you’re constantly searching for the best work out plan to build
a bigger bicep or chest. Or you’re researching different foods that help maximize
the muscle growth process. But what about our teeth? Our teeth are important
too, and it’s just as important to help strengthen them as well. And although
brushing and flossing is a good start to great oral hygiene, complete oral hygiene extends far beyond the two.
Can foods actually strengthen your teeth?
What are these strengthening agent foods?
Glad you asked. Although there are many different foods that strengthen overall tooth and gum health, I’ll leave the list to seven, for now… Seven different foods that aid in the process of healthier and stronger gums and teeth are cheese, fish, oranges, fruits and veggies, green and black tea, chocolate, and water.
Why is cheese on the list?
Cheese acts as a superfood for our teeth because
of its ability to fight acid erosion that many other foods can cause our teeth
to succumb to. Various breads, sweets, and sodas make our teeth susceptible to
acid erosion. Therefore, eating cheese after meals can be a great way to combat
the effects of the aforementioned foods.
Seriously, chocolate is good for your overall tooth and gum health?
Congratulations! You can read! Yes, chocolate is actually good for your enamel. As long as that chocolate is of the dark kind. You see, it’s not the actual chocolate that helps your teeth, it’s what is in the cocoa bean, CBH. In fact, because of the compound CBH, there are many health professionals that say dark chocolate is more effective in building your enamel than fluoride. Now, that’s some kind of crazy! Nonetheless, dark chocolate is only good for your teeth if it is eaten in moderation. Eating a mess of dark chocolate will do no more for your teeth than burning down a pack of marlboro reds.
