Nuts, such as almonds, cashews, and Brazil nuts, are packed with essential minerals that help keep your teeth strong and gums healthy. Almonds, in particular, are low in sugar, high in calcium, and help stimulate saliva production, keeping bacteria away. Nuts are also a tooth-friendly swap for chips or crackers, which often leave behind starchy residue. More dental health tips? Contact us at (323) 731-0801.
