Have you been making the Tooth Fairy proud? Milk helps build strong teeth and promotes good oral health. Antibacterial properties of milk promote oral health. Drinking milk can also help prevent or reduce tooth decay and contribute to overall better gum health.
Milk and dairy product consumption has been associated
with a reduction in cavities with a regular oral hygiene routine. When combined
with normal brushing and flossing, the calcium in milk may help to reduce cavities.
Milk also contains casein, a protein, which prevents cavity-causing bacteria
from sticking to the surface of teeth.
An article from Oral
B says, “calcium is a prime ingredient for preventing tooth decay, especially
for growing children. Dairy is a great source, with choices such as milk,
yogurt and cheese. And calcium isn't hiding in the fat, so skim milk and
low-fat yogurt are just as good.”
Milk also contains riboflavin and vitamin D. Both
riboflavin and calcium can help in reducing the risk of gum disease. Tooth loss
can be avoided with an increase in calcium and vitamin D.
