The holidays are finally here, and with it comes good food, drinks, and fun with friends for many. However, don't let the holiday season damage your smile because the foods you eat directly impact the overall health of your smile. Here is a list of some healthy food choices you might want to choose that allow you to keep smiling:
- Turkey. Turkey is high in protein; it is not only good for your teeth but good for your body in appropirate quantities. You do want to be sure to floss after. Turkey tends to get stuck between your teeth which can cause problems later on.
- Fruits. If you are doing a Holiday meal with friends and family, instead of snacking on some bread, reach for that variety of fruit plate. It will wash the carbohydrates from your gums.
- Plain vegetables. Charcuterie boards are a great way and easy to throw out fresh vegetables that are easy to grab and great for your smile. Cucumbers, broccoli, and some baby carrots will keep you smiling during the holiday.
Your smile is valuable, so this holiday keeps smiling with healthy food choices and great dental habits; for more information on keeping your smile healthy.
