A healthy diet is full of colorful fruits and crunchy veggies. But at our pediatric dental office in Spring, we want all of the parents of our patients to know these healthy snacks are also great for a healthy smile.
Just like your body, your teeth need certain foods that taste great and make them feel great. This is where fruits and veggies come in. These two food groups pack a powerful amount of vitamins, and their texture can actually treat the gums to a little massage. When it comes to choosing foods, take some of these fun facts into consideration.
We can talk about the importance of fruits and veggies all day, but if you only know the benefits and not how much your child should be getting, it’s not doing much good. Head on over to www.myplate.gov to determine how many servings are appropriate for both you and your child
When you’re thinking of yummy yet nutritious foods for your little ones, choose something that is good for their growing bodies and their growing smiles. More importantly, when it comes to keeping a smile healthy, a good diet is only one part of the battle. Keeping appointments with your kid’s pediatric dentist in Spring is just as important. If your child is overdue for a checkup, give us a call today!
Welcoming patients from Spring, The Woodlands, and surrounding areas.
