What’s your favourite?

How sugar affects your teeth: There are millions of invisible BACTERIA living on your teeth and their favourite food is sugar! Each time you eat a sugary snack, bacteria in your mouth gobble up the sugar and turn it into ACID which is released into your mouth.

Acid Attack! The acids released by bacteria are very strong and dissolve the enamel on your teeth. This is called an ACID ATTACK! Each acid attack lasts for 20 MINUTES until your saliva washes the acid away

Does this have harmful sugar in it? Orange Squash?

How much sugar you can eat: It’s OK to have sugary snacks occasionally as your teeth can heal after being attacked by acid. But if you have lots of sugary snacks or sip sugary drinks throughout the day your teeth will always be under attack from acid! This damages your teeth and can cause tooth decay.

Safe Snacks It is important to eat safe snacks to protect your teeth from decay.

Alternative foods: Instead of eating chocolate, biscuits or sweets, try healthier, safer snacks like: FRESH FRUIT: apples, bananas, pears or berries RAW VEGETABLES: carrot sticks, celery, cucumber or tomatoes And bread, pasta, nuts, milk, cheese or yoghurt

5 Steps to Healthy Teeth: Brush teeth twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste. Choose safe snacks like fruit & vegetables instead of chocolate & biscuits. Drink lots of water & milk instead of fizzy drinks or squash. Only have sugary foods/drinks at meal times. Visit your dentist regularly.
