A balanced diet includes plenty of fruit and vegetables, as well as starchy foods, such as bread, rice, potatoes and pasta. Green vegetables helps the good bacteria in the mouth to keep you healthy.
You should eat sources of protein, such as meat, fish, eggs, beans or other non-dairy sources of protein, and some milk and dairy foods. This is especially important for children.
Reduce sugar to prevent tooth decay
Limiting the amount of sugar you eat and drink is important to prevent tooth decay. Stick to 1 glass of fruit juice or smoothie a day.
Reduce sugar intake in children’s diet to keep their teeth healthy. Decay in early childhood has profound consequences of children’s wellbeing.
Smoking can stain your teeth yellow, cause bad breath, and increases your risk of gum disease, as well as causing many other serious health problems.

Alcohol can also erode the outer surface of the teeth, leading to a loss of enamel.
