Nutrition Counseling
Guidance and education on proper nutrition for optimal dental health.
A child’s diet plays a crucial role in their overall oral health. Consuming foods high in sugars and carbohydrates can lead to the formation of plaque, which can cause tooth decay and cavities. Nutrition counseling helps parents understand the importance of a balanced diet for their child's teeth, including limiting sugary snacks and drinks.
Healthy Foods
In addition to promoting good nutritional choices, nutrition counseling also emphasizes the importance of proper oral hygiene practices such as regular brushing and flossing. This combination gives children the best chance at maintaining strong and healthy teeth throughout their childhood.
Supporting a Balanced Diet
A balanced diet with essential nutrients such as calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D is vital for developing strong teeth and preventing tooth decay. Nutrition counseling also educates parents on the importance of limiting sugary and acidic foods which can lead to cavities and other dental issues. In addition, proper nutrition helps support the growth of healthy jaw bones, allowing for proper development of permanent teeth.
