The Real Effects of Sugary Snacks
If you are wondering “what are the causes of sugary snacks in your teeth?”, there are many answers to this. Sugary foods can be the catalyst for dental decay and gingivitis, so they should be avoided as often as possible. While it isn’t always practical to avoid sugary foods and beverages all the time, severely limiting your consumption of these products can do wonders for the health and overall wellness of your teeth. This is especially true for patients who wear orthodontic appliances and are looking to achieve a bright, straight and nearly flawless smile.
