The effects of Sugar on Our Dental Health
The British Dental Health Organisation (BDHF) is entirely supporting proposals from chef Jamie Oliver in his campaign against extra sugar. As part of the new documentary featuring one of the UK's favourite TV Chef's «Jamie's Sugar Rush» is taking an in-depth study of the disastrous consequences that sugar is having on our tooth health and particularly in children.
Around part of 8 year olds have tooth decay which means they are more likely to have decay in their adult teeth. Tooth decay is the main reason for hospitalisation in kids and while we can't blame the meals and drink business entirely, they do have to go for a sizable portion of the blame.
So What does Sugar Do to Our Teeth?
Each time we consume sugar, the bacteria which sticks to the teeth surface changes it into acid. This gradually eats away at the enamel, Marc Hall (informative post) eventually forming a hole as well as cavity. The length of the acid attack will depend on how much saliva is in the mouth of yours and just how long the sugary food stays on your teeth.Early teeth decay can have no symptoms but your dentist should spot a cavity in its first stages on examination of the teeth of yours.
Will we enjoy sweetly flavored foods and still keep the teeth of ours?
Let us be realistic. Sugary foods are part of everyday life and it is highly out of the question that we'll simply stop consuming sugary products. Lots of fizzy drinks contain more than twelve spoonful of sugar and really should be avoided. Many food producers are using sugar to improve food sampling which happens to be what Jamie Oliver is campaigning against. His manifesto that is endorsed by the BDHF is proposing a 20p levy every litre on every soft drink with additional sugar, a ban of unhealthy foods marketing and advertising along with showing very high sugar content in teaspoons on front of packaging.
A strict regime of normal tooth brushing (first thing and last thing at night) using a fluoride toothpaste as well as mouth wash in case you have a lot of fillings.
