It’s the holidays, and it’s not about avoiding sweets. It’s about balance and supporting your body after you indulge. ✨
What you eat after sweets can help protect your teeth for years. After sweets, the main issue isn’t the sugar itself. It’s how long acid stays on your enamel. When sugar is eaten, oral bacteria convert it into acids that temporarily soften enamel. The longer that acidic environment lingers, the more vulnerable teeth become.
Supporting healthy saliva flow and raising oral pH helps shorten this acid window, allowing the mouth to naturally rebalance and protect itself. Try pairing your sweets with one of these tooth-friendly foods to support your enamel health! 🧀🥜🥕🥛🍎
