The study also reveals that half the children who have a proper breakfast, not brushing your teeth after eating foods high in sugar.
A large number of children go to school without taking breakfast without the parents understand the serious problem this may cause, not only in school but also in oral health. On the one hand, many children who skip the first meal of the day tend to eat between hours, sugary foods, increasing their risk of developing cavities.
On the other hand, it is normal for parents, due to lack of time and the impatience of children, calls for solutions easier and more attractive as consumer-friendly products, but high in sugar. There is a lack of time, it still adds the fact that kids do not wash your teeth after eating these foods.
According to the latest study conducted by Vital Dent Clinics on oral health for children, only one in five children (57%) say they brush their teeth after eating foods high in sugar, while 30% say they do it only once in a while and 13% never.
Do not forget that sugar is the greatest enemy of our teeth as plaque turns it into an acid which destroys tooth enamel. When this cover is disappearing gradually softening for its leaves to protect them and allows the bacteria in the mouth causing caries attack and therefore pain.
Children's education as the best prevention - education based on healthy habits and monitor what children eat helps protect them against decay. If you take the early breakfast properly, the body will get used to it and will require a good breakfast every day, preventing the extreme consumption of sugar.
It is important to create the smallest habits for a healthy diet. We recommend it for the snacks, children who consume fruit juices or fruit and a few sweets, advises João Azevedo, dentist Vital Dent Clinics. In addition, to prevent cavities is necessary for parents to teach children to brush their teeth after meals. Using a soft brush, floss and toothpaste rich in calcium and fluoride should not miss the daily cleaning of the smaller adds.
Vital Dent Clinics, such as oral health experts recommend that children take a full breakfast and balanced, composed of dairy foods, carbohydrates and fiber, protein and fruit.
