Mantendo Dentes Fortes e Saudáveis para Vida - Parte 1 de 2

In recent years, more and more people have started using sugar substitutes like xylitol and stevioside. These sweeteners not only enhance the flavor of your food, but they can also inhibit growth of harmful bacteria and help prevent tooth decay. Also, research conducted in japan found that fiber intake from vegetables and mushrooms can help maintain oral health. Since dietary fiber stimulates the secretion of saliva, and saliva neutralizes the acidity of the mouth and inhibits bacterial growth, a plant-bases diet is an excellent defense against tooth decay.
