To keep your teeth and gums healthy takes more than regular brushing, flossing and mouth wash. Even regular check-up appointments with your dentist are not a guarantee for a healthy smile.

Tooth decay and gum disease are a common occurrence often due to unhealthy eating and just like the rest of your body it requires healthy nutrition with ample vitamins and minerals. When it comes to oral health sugars and acids in foods and drinks are the most damaging substances to tooth enamel, causing cavities and periodontal disease.
