Certain nutrients support enamel strength and saliva production.
Focus on:
- Dairy products rich in calcium
- Leafy greens
- Almonds
- Fatty fish for vitamin D
- Eggs
Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium more effectively. Without it, mineral intake may not fully benefit your teeth.
And here is the part many people forget.
Stay Hydrated
Saliva is your mouth natural defense system. It neutralizes acids and delivers minerals to enamel.
Dehydration reduces saliva flow, leaving enamel more vulnerable.
Aim to:
- Drink water consistently throughout the day
- Chew sugar free gum to stimulate saliva if needed
Xylitol based gum may also help reduce harmful bacteria levels according to several studies.
