Go Green for Healthy Teeth
Leafy greens are not only healthy for your body, but they also provide essential vitamins and minerals needed for a healthy smile.
Leafy greens contain vitamins such as A, C and k and minerals such as iron and calcium.
Leafy greens are also loaded with fiber. Fiber is beneficial to your oral health as leafy greens require a lot of chewing. The chewing action generates saliva. Saliva is necessary to neutralize the acid in our mouth and also helps to clean and rinse teeth.
List of leafy greens:
Spinach
Kale
Collard greens
Mustard greens
Lettuce-Iceberg, Romaine/Boston
Arugula
Swiss Chard
Beet greens
Cabbage
Incorporating leafy greens into your diet is an easy way to provide essential vitamins and minerals needed to maintain your optimum oral health!
