February .2 - 8 is Canada's
annual Dental Health Week. As
part of the observance, the
Post , in co-operation with
the Huron County Health Unit,
today begins a series of articles
on facts you should know about
dental health.
Are there any special foods that
contribute more than others to
strong teeth? I want to help my
children have good oral health.
Keep in mind that a well
balanced diet that promotes
overall health promotes dental
health too. But if you have any
questions about nutrition or meal-
planning, your family dentist will
be able to give you some
personalized nutrition
counselling.
Most people today eat for too
many sweets and sugar-rich foods
are a factor in dental decay.
Simply, sugars activate the
bacteria in the mouth, which in
turn starts the formation of
decay-causing acids. So to help
prevent dental decay, it is wise to
limit the consumption of sugar-
rich foods and beverages to
mealtimes. Avoid sugar foods
between meals, especially hard
candies, suckers, breath mints
and the like. These foods are kept
in the mouth for long periods of
time and bathe the teeth
continually in a pool of sugar thus
causing prolonged acid attacks on
the teeth.
Make sure that meals include
adequate amounts of food from
the four basic food groups:
Milkand dairy products (3-4
servings daily) meat and fish (2 or
m ore servings daily) vegetables
and. fruits (4 or more servings
daily), and bread and cereals (4 or
more servings daily).
The pre-school years are an
excellent time to begin to help
your children establish good
eating habits. It is at this time
that you can control their diets by
providing the proper food and by
elilminating an abundance of
between meal sweet snacks and
soft drinks.
In place of sugary snack foods,
try serving such foods as raw
vegetables, milk. cheese, nuts,
eggs, fresh fruits, luncheon
meats, sugarless candy or gum,
and dietetic soft drinks. At the
same time, avoid such foods s
jams and jellies, dried fruits, and
all kinds of sugared candies and
