To say no to sweet foods like cookies or candies is difficult.  However, food choices play an important role in preventing tooth decay.


Some foods contain essential nutrients that make your teeth healthier and stronger, but some foods can have an adverse effect on your teeth. To prevent tooth decay, remember the following food choices.


Calcium

Calcium is a key factor in preventing cavities, especially for growing children. It is abundant in dairy products such as milk, yogurt, and cheese. Also, since calcium is not related to fat, low-fat milk and low-fat yogurt are also good.  Leafy vegetables such as broccoli and bok choy, canned fish with bones, almonds, Brazilian walnuts and dried beans are also good.


Fruits, Fiber and Vegetables

Fibrous foods will stimulate the production of saliva, which produces minerals that prevent tooth decay.  Fibers are abundant in dried fruits such as jujubes, figs, raisins, and fresh fruits like bananas, apples and oranges. Vegetables like beans, brussels sprouts and peas and peanuts, almonds and bran are also excellent.


Whole Grain

Whole grains contain vitamin B and iron that are good for gum health. It also contains magnesium, an important factor for bones and teeth and abundant fibers.   Look for whole grain cereals and pasta with bran, brown rice, etc.


Sugary Snack

When you eat snacks, try to find a healthy food and eat them.  Avoid sugary food as much as you can.  Sugar causes plaque formation that damages enamel and makes your teeth vulnerable to cavities.  Every time you eat sugar, your teeth will be attacked for 20 minutes.


Food Pyramid

Try to keep the food pyramid in mind when following a healthy diet that is good for your body and teeth.  This pyramid contains all of the essential food groups that you need to eat in one day for your health.
