Diet, Nutrition, and Oral Health: Unlocking the Secrets of a Healthy Smile
![Jese Leos](https://librarycard.aroadtome.com/author/travis-foster.jpg)
For centuries, people have recognized the connection between diet and overall health. However, it is only recently that the scientific community has begun to explore the profound impact that nutrition has on our oral health. This comprehensive guidebook, 'Diet, Nutrition, and Oral Health', delves into this fascinating relationship, providing invaluable insights and practical advice for achieving optimal oral well-being.
The human mouth is home to a vast and diverse collection of microorganisms, known as the oral microbiome. This complex ecosystem plays a crucial role in maintaining oral health. However, certain dietary choices can disrupt the balance of this delicate ecosystem, leading to an increased risk of oral diseases.
Our diet provides the nutrients and building blocks that our teeth, gums, and oral tissues need to function properly. By consuming a balanced and nutritious diet, we can support the health and resilience of our oral cavity.
