Dark chocolate. You may be surprised to find chocolate on this list. But it contains CBH, a compound that helps harden tooth enamel. Almonds. These nuts are full of protein and calcium, with the added bonus of helping scrape off plaque when you chew them. Garlic. This one may seem counterintuitive because garlic can contribute to bad breath. But allicin, a compound derived from garlic, keeps the bacteria that cause tooth decay from overgrowing in the mouth. Leafy greens. These are jam-packed with calcium, vitamin A, folic acid, and vitamin C that can keep teeth healthy, along with the added bonus of filling you up with fewer calories. Cheese. Milk products can build strong bones, and cheese is no exception. Salmon. This and other fatty fish provide vitamin D, calcium, and omega-3 acids that promote gum health. Fruits and vegetables. These do so much good for your oral health by helping kill some oral bacteria, acting as a natural toothbrush, providing vitamins, and more. Strawberries. These contain malic acid, a natural tooth whitener. Unsweetened yogurt. This provides calcium for strong bones, teeth, and tooth enamel. Green and black teas. These beverages do more than help you relax. They contain fluoride that protects against tooth decay and also helps reduce gum inflammation.
