One of the best ways to care for your smile is with a healthy diet!  Foods high in calcium, vitamin D, and phosphorous provide kids with the nutrients they need to keep their teeth strong. 

Are you including any of these healthy food choices in your child’s diet?

Foods for strong teeth:
  • Spinach
  • Tuna
  • Salmon
  • Cheese
  • Egg Yolks
  • Edamame (Soybeans)
  • White beans
  • Kale
  • Apples

A healthy diet is more than just avoiding foods high in sugar.  Eating foods high in the nutrients needed to keep teeth strong can help prevent cavities before they even affect your smile.
