Diet matters in dental health and decay

What to eat so your teeth don't get eaten by cavities...

Diet and the nutritional quality of the food eaten (a carrot isn't necessarily equal to another carrot, even if it tastes the same) is doubtless a major element in both preservation and decay of teeth. And this not only means the food you've eaten since your first day on earth, but includes your mother's diet during pregnancy (and to believe certain research results, that of your ancestors!). So the following pages feature numerous suggested elements of a tooth-friendly diet to heal cavities, reverse tooth decay, treat, strengthen and keep your teeth – welcome! (And a first tip to get you started ;-): Did you know that chocolate is good against teeth???)
