For National Smile Month 2025, we’re focusing on the powerful connection between diet and oral health with our theme, Feed Your Smile.
Your diet plays a crucial role in maintaining a healthy, beautiful smile, and we want to help you make smart choices that promote oral health every day.
What we’ll be talking about
Why a balanced diet, hydration, and healthy snacks contribute to strong, bright teeth by enhancing enamel, protecting gums, and preventing tooth decay.
How reducing sugar intake helps maintain good oral health and prevent long-term dental issues.
Why dairy products, gut health, and specific foods can strengthen teeth, while sugary, acidic, and processed foods should be limited to avoid damage to your oral health.
The importance of a good oral health routine
While diet plays a key role in oral health, having a consistent and effective oral health routine is equally important. We’ll remind you of the basics of a good daily oral health routine:
- Twice daily brushing with fluoride toothpaste.
- Cleaning between your teeth with interdental brushes or floss.
- Using a fluoride mouthwash.
- Visiting your dentist regularly.
This combination of healthy habits and a balanced diet will help you combat the effects of food and drink on your teeth and gums, keeping your smile bright and healthy for years to come.
