Six snacks that are actually good for your teeth
When you’re feeling peckish, it’s tempting to reach for a biscuit or chocolate. We all have a craving for chocolate from time time, after all.
But the problem with snacks like cake and biscuits is that they can cause cavities in your teeth.
It’s much better to eat a snack that’s good for your teeth instead. In this post, we’ll list some sinless snacks that will make your hunger go away without jeopardizing your teeth.
1. Cheese
Cheese is a great snack for your teeth.
For one thing, it’s high in calcium, which your body needs to keep your bones and teeth strong.
For another thing, cheese contains phosphorous, which helps your teeth to absorb the calcium.
Another characteristic of cheese is that it is very low in acidity. In fact, it’s almost pH neutral. This means that when you eat it, it neutralises acids in your mouth and protects your teeth against cavities.
All in all, we would say that cheese is a great snack for your teeth!
2. Yogurt
Yoghurt is another food high in calcium. eating yoghurt, therefore, helps keep your teeth healthy and strong.
What’s more, yoghurt contains good bacteria that help to crowd out the bad bacteria in your mouth.
However, be careful when you buy yoghurt at the supermarket because many yoghurts contain added sugar. Always check the information on the packaging and make sure you buy ones without any added sugar. You will be doing your teeth a favour!
3. Carrots
Carrots are another great snack that can help keep your teeth healthy.
They’re packed with fibre, which acts as a natural toothbrush, dislodging any food stuck between your teeth.
Also, when you chew on a carrot, your mouth produces saliva. This saliva neutralizes acids, kills bacteria and washes away any bits of food in your mouth.
So when you’re hungry but it’s not time for lunch yet, why not try a carrot?
4. Celery
Celery is also a great snack for your teeth.
Like carrots, celery is high in fibre, which acts as a natural toothbrush by dislodging food from your teeth.
Celery is also high in vitamin A and vitamin C, which your gums need to stay healthy.
5. Nuts
If you’d prefer a snack that’s high in calories so you get energy throughout the day, then look no further than nuts.
All types of nuts naturally low in sugar. What’s more, they are high in vitamins and minerals that are good for your teeth, such as calcium and vitamin D.
6. Seeds
Seeds are another snack that is high in calories but good for your teeth. Many seeds are high in calcium for example, which your teeth need to stay strong.
Just be sure to have floss handy in case a seed gets stuck between your teeth!
Conclusion
In this blog post, we’ve gone over six snacks that are actually good for your teeth. So the next time you’re feeling hungry between meals, reach for one of these snacks instead of a biscuit.

My name is Hailey Garcia and I am from New Jersey. My herpes virus turned to war after 2 years of living with it. I have tried different medical procedures to cure my herpes but to no avail. Most people think herpes is only a minor skin irritation of which herpes has long term effects on health and passes through the bloodstream and can be easily contracted through sexual intercourse. I knew I had herpes from the first day I started feeling itchy in my pubic area and the pain was very unbearable. I couldn’t stand it anymore. After 2 years of trying other means to get rid of it, I had to contact Doctor Odunga to help me with a permanent cure. I saw his email and whats-app number from a testimony I read online from a lady who was also helped by him in curing infertility problems, I had faith and contacted him. He assured me of his work and I ordered his herbal medicine. Within 5 days, I didn’t feel any pain anymore and within 2 weeks, my skin was all cleared and smooth. I am very grateful to you sir and I write this testimony as others have done to bring those having faith to you sir. If you have herpes or other similar disease and you want it cured, kindly contact Doctor Odunga, Whats-App (wa.me/+2348167159012) OR Email odungaspelltemple@gmail.com
ReplyHello everyone, I am really grateful to God for leading my way to meet Doctor Odunga who gave me the winning numbers to the Powerball lottery to win $1.3 Billion Dollars. My name is Cheng Saephan, I am 46 years old and I have been diagnosed with Cancer for over 8 years now. I live in Portland, Oregon. My wife Duanpen has done everything she can to cure me of this illness until a friend of hers Laiza Chao introduced Doctor Odunga to her that he can cure all types of illness. My wife told me about this man and I didn’t say much but thank God she did contact him through his email. I quickly learned that this man can also make people win the lottery and I just couldn’t resist asking him first to do a lottery spell for me because I have been playing the lottery almost everyday since I can remember. It didn’t take time at all when this man gave me the winning numbers for the Powerball and I played it and won the Powerball Jackpot of $1.3 Billion Dollars. This man blessed my family and also cured me of Cancer. Thank You Doctor Odunga. I have testified about your work sir and hope to bring serious ones to you for help too.
