5 Nutritional Recommendations For Oral And Dental Health

One of the determining factors in oral and dental health is the food consumed. For this reason, it is one of the best choices to consume foods that positively affect dental health instead of foods that harm teeth. In our article, you can find 5 foods that have positive effects on oral and dental health.

Foods with Positive Effects on Oral and Dental Health

5 nutrients that positively affect oral and dental health are as follows:

Apple

Apple is a very rich food in terms of water. Therefore, it activates saliva production and helps you get rid of food residues. It also cleans the mouth from bacteria caused by these food residues. The fibers found in apples brighten your teeth and stimulate your gums.

In order to see these effects of apple on oral and dental health, you should consume the apple without peeling it.

Dairy products

Calcium is essential for both bone and dental health. It helps protect your tooth structure and prevents tooth decay. Therefore, you can strengthen your teeth by taking enough calcium.

Dairy products are a storehouse of calcium. However, at this point, it is important to consume the right products. Instead of dairy products containing hormones, antibiotics or other chemicals, you should consume as much natural as possible. When choosing milk, you can choose organic or unpasteurized milk.

Oral and Dental Health: Coconut

The method known as coconut oil pulling is a mouth detox method. It is a method that has started to attract attention in recent years. With coconut oil pulling, it is possible to remove toxins from your mouth and prevent cavities and diseases.

You can do this by rinsing your mouth with 1 tablespoon of coconut net for 15-20 minutes. It is one of the best choices to make in the morning. But if you don't have time, you can do it at other times of the day.

Coconut oil pulling benefits:

  • It is a natural antifungal treatment.
  • It has anti-virus effects.
  • Creates a clean mouth environment.
  • Provides solutions to tooth decay.
  • Eliminates bad breath.
  • It whitens the teeth.
  • Heals bleeding gums.

If you do not like the oil pulling method, you can also benefit from the effects of coconut on oral and dental health by adding it to your diet.

Green Leafy Vegetables

Green leafy vegetables are very effective in terms of both dental health and general body health. Although they are low in calories, they are very rich in vitamins and minerals.

Green leafy vegetables such as cabbage, spinach and chard are an extremely effective and easy method for maintaining the health of your teeth. Thanks to the antioxidants and vitamins they contain, these vegetables help to keep teeth strong while fighting against dental caries.

Nutritional Recommendations for Dental Health

You can create effective solutions for oral and dental health by making small changes in your life. For example; You can prefer plant-based foods containing milk, cheese, kefir, organic or inorganic phosphate for caries prevention.

  • In order to protect oral and dental health, a diet with a weight of protein and vegetables is necessary for chewing.
  • Coffee, tea, alcohol, acidic beverages should be consumed in a limited way.
  • Sugar consumption should be controlled.
  • Regular dental check-ups should be made.
  • Fresh vegetables and fruits, meat, eggs, legumes should be included in the diet.
  • Fresh and unprocessed foods that stimulate saliva secretion should be consumed.  

In addition to cleaning your teeth and mouth, the factors you will pay attention to in your diet help to protect your oral and dental health. However, even if you consume foods that have positive effects on dental health, you should never neglect brushing your teeth and brush your teeth at least twice a day.
