How to keep your teeth white and make your enamel stronger

To have a beautiful, strong, and healthy smile, you should always brush and floss your teeth. We’ll show you how to keep your teeth looking healthy and strong in this blog.

It’s easy, cheap, and quick to take care of your teeth at home! Taking regular care of your oral health keeps your teeth from getting discolored or broken. To keep tooth enamel healthy, white, and strong, there are many things that can be done to stop problems and fix them when they happen.

To have a great smile, you need teeth enamel that is strong and healthy.

How to Pick the Best Toothpaste

There are different kinds of toothbrushes. Use a brand that has fluoride in it to protect your teeth. You can check the tube’s chemicals list to see if fluoride is in the toothpaste. Every day, fluoride helps to rebuild tooth enamel and stop the early signs of decay.

Sodium chloride, dissolved calcium, phosphate, and fluoride ions in toothpaste will help keep your tooth enamel strong and healthy. This is especially true if you drink a lot of soda or other sugary drinks, which can weaken your tooth enamel.

Stay away from sugar and starch.

Milk, drink, dried fruit, and chewy treats are all high in sugar and starch, which means they stick to your teeth for a long time and make cavities more likely. Sugar and starch are bad for you because they make bacteria grow in your mouth, which damages your enamel. When you eat something with sugar and carbs, brush your teeth right away to stop germs from growing!

Getting more nutrients is important.

Calcium and phosphorous can be found in dairy goods like milk, yogurt, and cheese. These minerals help strengthen and remineralize your tooth enamel. They also make you salivate, which can help kill germs and keep the pH level in your mouth balanced.

Foods that are high in fiber, like vegetables, also help protect your enamel by keeping the surface clean. The act of eating makes your salivate and also soothes your gums. Strawberries are full of antioxidants and vitamin C, which are good for your oral health as a whole. The malic acid in strawberries also whitens your teeth and gets rid of tartar, which is bad for your teeth.

Animal proteins, like those found in chicken and beef, are good for your teeth and enamel because they contain calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium.

Brushing and cleaning your teeth every day will keep them clean, whiten them over time, and protect the enamel. Feel free to call or come by our office to find out more about how to whiten your teeth and keep them healthy and strong.
