Trinity says “No to Sugar”

“Say no to Sugar” is the punch line of many doctors and specifically dentists globally. Sugar and the remains of it in the mouth are plague for oral hygiene. Hence the dentists at Trinity Dental time and again stress of using alternative food or alternatives to sugar.

Research and development indicates that since breakfast incorporates the most important meal of the day, taking precise care of the sugar content can kick start a healthy start to the day considering oral hygiene and health.

Statistics indicate the rising number of people who indulge in comfort food like pastries and short cut caffeinated drinks to give them the necessary morning jolt suffer the most from poor oral hygiene and developing tooth decay. It’s no wonder that flossing and brushing the teeth does indeed help but a healthy breakfast gives the body the nutritious requirement for oral health maintenance.

A balanced breakfast enriched with fruits or fresh fruit juice with minimal or no sugar preferably, vegetables and fiber along with a good serving of healthy proteins is not only adequate but also takes care of bad breath, tooth decay, tooth loss and diseases of the gum.

A few of the effective healthy breakfast tips include oatmeal, whole wheat bread, ripe fruits and unsweetened tea, preferably a green one which  helps in strengthening the tooth enamel and preventing decay. Also high fiber cereals are also favored with less preservatives and added sugar.

A common sight at Trinity Dental is that many of the patients complain of the pressing time needs in the morning and hence they indulge in any tempting and short breakfast option. It is an advice by Trinity Dental to them that taking out time for a nutritionally balanced breakfast is absolutely essential for strength and health of the teeth in the long term.
