Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, is far more common than you might think. Each year, new studies continue to make the link between gum disease and the effects that it can have on the heart. Our staff at Thomas Family Dentistry have been helping spread the word! One of the simplest steps to achieving healthier gums can be your diet. We recently found an article outlining several options for healthier gums. Included among the suggestions were:- Raisins
- Green Tea
- Whole Grains
In addition to these foods being gums-friendly, they are healthy foods in general, and a great option to begin integrating into your diet. We hope these tips help! If you have any further questions concerning your diet and dental health, please call us at 918-455-0123.
Have a great day!
God Bless,
