Why Is Nutrition Important for Oral Health?
Your mouth is the gateway to your entire body—and what you eat can either support or sabotage your oral health. A poor diet can increase your risk of:
- Cavities and tooth decay
- Gum disease and inflammation
- Enamel erosion and sensitivity
- Bad breath
- Delayed healing after procedures
At Coastland Dental, our nutritional counseling helps you identify foods that support strong teeth and gums, improve healing, and protect your overall wellness.
