Ever since you were a child, you’ve been told innumerable times how sugar rots your teeth. Almost everyone around us knows it for a fact that too much sugar leads to tooth decay, but there are hardly any who exactly know how and why it happens. It therefore comes as no surprise that sugar is still the most widespread cause of oral diseases<\/em><\/a><\/strong>. While most of us fail to pay heed to the sugar content in our favourite snacks and treats, the truth is that sugar is embedded deep inside most of the food items. Right from breakfast cereals to artificial fruit juices and from salad dressings to sweets, sugar lurks around almost every other thing we consume. Loathed far more than fats and cholesterol, if there\u2019s something that must be avoided at all costs, it\u2019s sugar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If consumed regularly, sugar turns out to be deadly for both our dental and general health<\/a><\/strong>. In sugar\u2019s presence, hundreds of bacteria residing inside our mouth begin to produce acids that demineralize cementum and dentin, ultimately leading to a dissolved enamel. This microbial infection slowly destroys the hard tissues in the oral cavity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

So, how do we tackle?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Fret not! You don\u2019t have to quit sugar completely. Sugar in its natural form is relatively less harmful. In fact, it is a source of carbohydrate that our bodies need to function. Known as fructose or lactose, it\u2019s found in vegetables, dairy products and fruits. The problem comes when you start consuming artificially processed sugar, which is much more prevalent than you realize.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Tips to cut down on sugar<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

– A different name doesn\u2019t make it any less detrimental:<\/strong> There\u2019s much more to sugar than the white grains you pop into your tea. Sucrose, glucose, corn syrup and molasses, look out for them.
– Opt for a sugar-free breakfast<\/a><\/strong>
– Start munching on things other than cookies
– Refrain from fat free products:<\/strong> It\u2019s just a part of the story. Fat-free products are often a source of excessive refined sugar
– You don\u2019t always need a dessert
– Cut down on snacks:<\/strong> It\u2019s important because it takes around an hour for our mouth to return to a neutral state. Constant grazing should be avoided if you need a sugar fix. It\u2019s not about how much sugar you consume, it\u2019s about how often you\u2019re consuming it.
– Have a hearty breakfast. This helps you get through the day without the need of a sugary fix. Fewer cravings simply mean less consumption.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Constant vigilance is the key to prevent dental caries. Limit the sugar intake, brush away the bacteria-infested plaque and start consuming natural products and to top it all, schedule regular visits to dentists.
