The effect of diet on dental health
 

Diets low in certain nutrients reduce resistance to gum disease and decay. A healthy immune system is essential to controlling gum disease.

Counseling in the Four Basic Food groups will improve dental health and general health. The consumption of sugar, especially in sticky forms or in a baby bottle while sleeping, contributes to the rapid development of dental decay.

Together, a balanced diet, effective brushing, and sensible eating habits can reduce the risk of, or even prevent, infectious dental disease.

Please don't hesitate to call Bethesda Sedation Dentistry at (301) 530-2434 if you need more information on diet or fluoride supplementation and its relationship to dental care.
