Just as important as adding the right nutrients is cutting down on harmful foods. Sugary snacks and acidic drinks feed bacteria that produce acids, which slowly erode your enamel. Over time, this can weaken your teeth and make them more prone to cavities.
Instead, try to focus on whole, unprocessed meals. Fresh fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains not only benefit your overall health but also reduce the risk of plaque buildup. When you do enjoy sweets, remember to rinse with water afterward to minimize damage.
🥥 Oil Pulling for a Cleaner Mouth
Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic practice that has gained modern attention as a natural way to maintain oral hygiene. The technique involves swishing a tablespoon of oil—commonly coconut oil—in your mouth for 10 to 20 minutes.
This simple practice helps reduce harmful bacteria, lower plaque buildup, and create a healthier environment for enamel repair. Many people notice fresher breath and a cleaner mouth after making oil pulling a part of their daily routine.
