How to Naturally Repair a Cavity & Strengthen Your Teeth
Taking care of your teeth can keep them strong. But if a cavity forms, only a dentist can fix it. Cavities happen when bad bacteria harm your enamel. A dentist can fill the hole.
Here are easy ways to keep your teeth healthy:
Eat Healthy Foods
Eat foods with calcium and phosphorus. They help your enamel stay strong.
Eat foods with vitamin D. It helps your body use calcium. Eggs, fish, and
sunlight are good sources.
Limit sugary foods. Sugar feeds bad bacteria. Soda and citrus can hurt enamel.
Eat foods with vitamin K2. It helps your body use calcium. You’ll find it in
fermented foods and grass-fed dairy.
Try Oil Pulling
Swish coconut or sesame oil in your mouth for 10-20 minutes. This removes bad
bacteria and helps your teeth.
Use Remineralizing Toothpaste
Look for toothpaste with fluoride. It helps rebuild enamel. Xylitol toothpaste
can stop bacteria from growing.
Drink Fluoridated Water
Fluoride makes your enamel stronger. It also helps prevent cavities. Ask your
dentist if your water doesn’t have fluoride.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water. Chewing sugar-free gum also helps keep your mouth moist.
Use a Natural Mouth Rinse
Rinse with warm water and sea salt. This lowers bacteria. You can also mix
water and baking soda to keep your mouth healthy.
Add Probiotics
Probiotics in yogurt and kefir help keep bacteria in your mouth balanced.
Brush and Floss Regularly
Brush twice a day with a soft-bristled toothbrush. Floss every day to remove
plaque and keep your teeth clean.
These tips can help protect your teeth. If a cavity forms,
see a dentist to fix it.
