Does Drinking More Water Protect Your Teeth?


Posted on 9/5/2022 by Oral Surgery Specialists of Austin
Does Drinking More Water Protect Your Teeth?You need good oral hygiene habits to ensure that you shield your teeth from dental health deterioration. One of the ways you can guarantee you protect your gums and teeth is through drinking plenty of water. Water is not only good for your body but also your teeth. At our dental practice, we ensure that we give you sufficient information that will help you improve your oral wellness. Here, we will advise you on why it is important to drink plenty of water for the good of your oral health.

Drinking Plenty of Water Washes Food Particles Away


When you drink plenty of water during the day, you wash away the food particles that may have been left after eating. Food particles left on the surface of your gums and teeth, are among the causes why you might develop tooth decay and cavities. Therefore, when you remove these food particles, you reduce the chances of tooth decay.

Water Dilutes the Acids in Your Mouth


The acid that is in your mouth contributes significantly to the corrosion of your teeth which leads to decay and dental cavities. Drinking plenty of water neutralizes and dilutes these acids, therefore reducing their corrosive power.

Drinking Water Rich in Fluoride Strengthens Your Teeth


Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that can strengthen your teeth' enamel. Therefore, when you increase your intake of fluoride-rich water, you will be contributing to the strengthening of your teeth.
