The best foods for your oral health

In addition to proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, a balanced diet that is good for your teeth and gums is essential to maintain good oral health.

At Moreno-Montalvo Dental Clinic we want you to enjoy the best oral health, so we recommend you some foods that can not miss in your diet. Be very attentive!

What foods are beneficial for my oral health?

We recommend some of the foods that contribute most to the health of your mouth:

Vegetables

  • Green vegetables: as well as providing calcium, they require repeated chewing, which stimulates salivation and strengthens the jaw and gums. These vegetables include, for example, lettuce and spinach.
  • Celery: its malic acid also helps to increase saliva production, which cleans the dentition and prevents tooth stains.

Fruits

  • Strawberries: their high Xylitol content attacks the bacteria that cause dental plaque. This fruit also stimulates blood circulation in the gums, gives vitality to the teeth and stabilises acute caries.
  • Apples: their vitamin D helps to eliminate bacterial plaque and helps to maintain the whiteness of teeth.

Other foodstuffs

  • Water: it may seem obvious, but it is essential for good oral health. It contains fluoride, washes your teeth, maintains the pH of your mouth and removes acids.
  • Dairy: calcium and vitamin D strengthen teeth and help maintain white enamel.
  • Green tea: this infusion contains an antioxidant called catechin that helps prevent gum inflammation. It is a great weapon against periodontal disease.

If you have any doubts about which foods are best for you, you can always ask our professionals in our dental clinic in Salou and Tarragona. dental clinic in Salou and TarragonaWe are always ready to help you!
