Is Your Breakfast Harming Your Oral Health?

What do you enjoy for your breakfast? A muffin? A cup of yogurt? Eggs? Obviously, some choices are healthier than others for your body. Scrambled eggs with whole wheat toast have more nutrition than a bowl of cereal. However, it isn’t just your body that is impacted by what you eat. Your choice of breakfast could be helping or harming your oral health. Just watch this video:

As you can see, certain foods have high sugar content. When you have too much sugar, it blends in with the bacteria in your mouth and increases your risk for cavities. Over time, this damages the health and beauty of your smile. So, try to limit how much sugar you consume during the day.
