2. Sugar’s Sweet But Damaging Lure
Sugar, while delightful, comes with a hidden price. Every time we indulge, we inadvertently feed harmful mouth bacteria.
These bacteria relish sugar as much as we do. As they digest, they produce more of the harmful acid, which directly targets the enamel, laying the groundwork for cavities.
Reducing sugar isn’t about missing out on treats. It’s about dental preservation. Moderation is key. The less sugar consumed, the less fuel we provide to the harmful bacteria. (2)
