Thanksgiving Feast Can Benefit Oral Health
Thanksgiving Feast Can Benefit Oral Health
This Thanksgiving we have much to be thankful for…good health, good food and great family and friends to share the holiday with. Our traditions and celebrations center on our bountiful meals, and planned correctly, this Thanksgiving dinner can be not only delicious but healthy for your bodies and teeth and gums too! Just like our bodies, our teeth and gums need many essential vitamins and minerals to stay strong and healthy. In fact, to ensure proper tooth development and strength, adults, children, and seniors alike need calcium, vitamins and minerals in their diets.This Thanksgiving, be sure to prepare a meal that is not only delicious but healthy for your teeth and gums too! Some vitamins and nutrients that are good for your oral health are vitamins A, C, D, phosphorous, and calcium. A delicious Thanksgiving dinner can include them all.
Here are a few things that will make your mouth happy this Thanksgiving:
- Turkey is high in phosphorous, which is not only healthy for developing teeth but can actually rebuild and remineralize teeth and bones of the jaw
- Sweet potatoes are loaded with nutrients including vitamins A, C, and B6 and are thought to be much healthier and nutritious than regular white potatoes
- Green and winter vegetables are great sources of vitamins A and C, both of which are important for gum health and repair of gum diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis
- Cranberries contain flavonoids, which can prevent bacteria from sticking to teeth and forming plaque. Bacteria are responsible tooth decay and gum infections
- Pumpkin pies are loaded with vitamin C and calcium – important for gum health and developing teeth and bone maintenance

services including: general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, teeth whitening,
veneers, dental implants, root canals, periodontic treatments, and
