Cheese

According to a survey, eating cheese raises the pH level in the mouth and reduces the risk of dental decay. It is thought that the chewing required to consume cheese increases saliva production in the mouth. Calcium and protein, two elements that give tooth strength, are also present in cheese.

Apples

While most sugary foods should be avoided, there are some exceptions, according to physicians. Fruits like apples have a high water and fibre content in addition to being tasty. When you eat an apple, saliva is produced in your mouth, which washes away food particles and microorganisms.

Yoghurt

Yogurt is high in calcium and protein, making it a similar choice to cheese for the strength and health of your teeth. Yogurt contains probiotics, or beneficial bacteria, which are also beneficial to your gums since they flush away cavity-causing germs.

Carrots

Carrots are fibrous and crisp like apples. After every meal, consume 3-4 raw carrots to increase salivation and reduce the risk of cavities. Carrots are a significant source of vitamin A and are also high in fibre. Slices of raw carrot can be added to salads or you can eat some tiny carrots by themselves.

Almonds

Due to their high calcium and protein content and low sugar content, almonds are good for your teeth. Grab a handful of almonds to eat with your meal. A few handfuls can also be used to a stir-fry or salad for dinner.
