@SpectacularMag

Poor nutrition can affect your entire immune system, increasing susceptibility to many disorders, even COVID-19. People with lowered immune systems have been shown to be at higher risk for periodontal disease.

Dr. Desiree Palmer, DMD and a Community Health Coalition Board of Directors member states, “You may prevent two of the most common diseases – tooth decay and periodontal disease – simply by improving your diet.” Certain foods are linked to higher levels of cavity-causing bacteria. Poor nutrition does not directly cause periodontal disease; however, studies and researchers believe that the disease progresses faster and is more severe in patients whose diet does not provide the necessary nutrients.

As you probably already know, your bones, teeth included, are mostly made up of calcium. As you eat acidic foods, the layer of enamel that protects your teeth can be worn down. Examples of highly acidic foods and beverages include:

  • Grains
  • Pickles
  • Alcohol
  • Coffee
  • Fish
  • Processed foods
  • Certain (not all) dairy products
  • Fresh meats and processed meats, such as corned beef and turkey
  • Sugary sodas and other sweetened beverages
  • High-protein foods and supplements

Eat a well-balanced diet, including the basic food groups. Avoid foods that cling to your teeth, that are sweet and sticky, such as candy, cakes, and dried fruits. Choose healthy snacks such as nuts, fresh fruits, raw vegetables, yogurt, cheese, and sugarless gum. Drink plenty of water and limit soft drinks and sugary drinks.

Dr. Palmer further states, “Eating a well-balanced diet may not only improve your dental health but may reduce your risk for other diseases.” Ask your dentist at your next visit about how your nutrition (diet) may affect your oral health.
