Say no to acidic foods
Acid foods will cause damage to the mouth and teeth in general. When you are exposed to foods that are acidic the enamel is eroded, and the dentin is exposed. When your dentin is exposed, it means that the pulp cavity exposes the blood vessels and nerves. Avoid taking food that has acid in them and you will be healthy. Acidic foods need to be excluded from your meal and this is why you need to observe what you eat.
Say no sugary foods
Foods with sugar will cause you more harm than give you refreshment, Sugar when it combines with mouth bacteria leads to the formation of acid. Sugar is a breeding ground for bacteria, there is a need to ensure that you avoid the formation of plaque and tartar for this brings about bacteria in the mouth. The acid formed by bacteria erodes the tooth enamel forming a hole in the tooth, the hole is known as a cavity and can cause you so much harm. A cavity can bring about tooth decay and this will bring about bad breath on the mouth. You are also likely to have other oral issues like tooth loss and even gum diseases. Ensure that you check on the diet that you are taking so that you are safe from having any cavities, tooth loss, or even gum diseases.
