2. Munching on sweet cookies and savoury snacks, savoring treats, loading up on sugary
and acidic drinks and many other unhealthy eating and lifestyle habits have become
significant part of our lives.
What most of us fail to realise is those sweetened fruit drinks, sugar-filled sodas,
appetising candies and treats that undoubtedly satisfy our taste buds are taking a toll on
our teeth as well. And the adverse effects aren’t limited to our dental health, but go
beyond to influence our general health and wellbeing.
While we already know our eating patterns and food choices are ruining our pearly whites
and affecting our health, it’s high time that we know what’s actually going wrong inside
our body.

3. SUGARY FOODS ARE YOUR TEETH’S ENEMY
• While foods containing sugars of any form can contribute to tooth decay,
consuming large amounts of sugary snacks, gums, candies and sugary beverages
in particular can cause tooth decay, cavities , tartar build-up and eventual tooth
pain and loss.
• To help cut down on your sugar intake, choose items that are low in added sugars
and prefer consuming sugary foods with your meals or as desserts.

4. SAY NO TO CLINGY FOODS
• Soft, sweet and clingy treats and snacks including muffins, cakes, candies, gums
and even your favourite, chocolates promote tooth decay.
• If you must snack, consider snacking with nuts, raw vegetables, yoghurt and other
sugarless treats that are not only appetising but healthy for your teeth and overall
body system.

5. PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR EATING DISORDERS
• A number of medical studies have linked eating disorders like anorexia nervosa
and bulimia nervosa to a number of teeth problems and medical complications.
• These disorders that involve secret, repeated binge eating and an extreme fear of
weight gain can cause your teeth enamel to erode and change the shape colour and
length of the teeth while making brittle and weak.
• Consulting with a certified dentist can help you indulge in good oral care practices
and cope with you eating disorders.

6. WHAT LACKS NUTRITION IS BEST AVOIDED
• A diet that lacks essential nutrients is believed to make it harder for your immune
system to function and combat diseases and easier for dental complications like
periodontal disease, tooth infection and dental caries to progress faster.
• So, whenever you snack or eat, make sure your foods contain enough of the
essential nutrients your body needs.
