If You Eat these Foods You May Need to Brush Your Teeth More
15th / February / 2018
If you like to eat sugary snacks such as candy or dried fruit or starchy foods like white bread you may want to incorporate some extra brushing into your dental care routine.
Key takeaways:
- These foods encourage oral bacteria to multiply and colonise your teeth, resulting in plaque build up which eventually becomes hardened tartar
- Gently and thoroughly brushing your teeth half an hour after eating can remove any plaque build up
- Drinking water while eating these foods helps keep the surface of the tooth clean reducing potential damage
“Candy should always be eaten in moderation, if at all.”
