We Americans think about food a lot this time of year. Last week’s Thanksgiving meal and (after dinner nap) reminded me yet again that what we eat has a big effect on the way we feel — and how our bodies function overall. Did you know that your diet also significantly impacts your oral health? And that what you’re eating can either help to protect your teeth from decay… or make them vulnerable to it? As your dentist in Wichita Falls, I want you to keep these nutritional guidelines in mind this month and into 2016.
