Avoid These 5 Foods If You Have Any Kind Of Tooth Or Dental Disease

EDITOR’S PICK: 

Oral health experts stated that there is a link between tooth discoloration and a diet high in acidic foods and beverages.

Acids can weaken and porousize the enamel, making stains easier to absorb. Several foods and beverages have been deemed dangerous by dentists because of their potential to cause tooth decay.

In this article on EKO HOT BLOG, we would be looking at some foods you should avoid if you have any kind of dental disease.

1. Popcorn

In addition to the risk of tooth fracture if eaten raw, popcorn can cause gum infections when it gets stuck between teeth.

2. Nuts

The bacteria found inside the teeth of people who eat nuts on a regular basis can lead to serious dental infections. As a result, dentists recommend that you brush your teeth for at least two minutes after each meal.

3. Dried fruit

Despite the fact that it is high in fiber, it is a dental disaster. No, the sugar in dried fruit does not cause problems; however, it adheres to the teeth and can only be removed by brushing for an extended period of time. As a result, doctors recommend that you only eat it fresh.

4. Fruit juice

When it comes to teeth stains, cranberry and pomegranate juices have a tendency to be the worst. In addition, many fruit juices, such as orange or lemon juice, can be highly acidic, allowing the dyes to stain more deeply.

5. Coffee

Its brown hue is attributed to polyphenols, an organic compound, according to reports. If you eat foods high in polyphenols, you may notice that your teeth gradually turn brown.

Tanning, a polyphenolic compound found in tannins, gives the plant its characteristic yellow or brown hue. When tannins penetrate the enamel of your teeth, they can result in teeth that appear green or gray.
