How To Look After Your Teeth
Health And Fitness : Food And Health As a rule to protect your teeth - in terms of your diet - you should try to reduce as much as possible the amount of sugar that there is in your diet. This is particularly potent in the form of fizzy drinks. Tests have suggested that a tooth left in a can of some fizzy drinks would decay and even disappear overnight, such is the potency of the sugar and acid combination in some drinks! So tip one is to cut out fizzy drinks - replace with water or flavoured, sugar free water. Cut out sweets as much as you can - chocolate and chewing gum. Wherever you see sweet things in your diet, try to reduce the sugar or use sugar free alternatives. Of course, you will need to brush your teeth regularly and well, too.
