Healthy Habits: Food for the Teeth

Did you know that some of the foods you eat can be beneficial for your teeth? Dairy products contain calcium, helpful for strong bones and teeth. Yogurt also contains good bacteria that can help fight bad oral bacteria, and some cheeses help neutralize acids in your mouth. Omega-3s found especially in fish can help reduce gum inflammation, and crunchy fruits and vegetables stimulate saliva production and improve circulation by massaging your gums.
