3 Foods to Avoid for Healthy Teeth 为了牙齿健康,不应该吃的三种食物
It is said that you are what you eat. This means that the food or drink intake plays a significant role in achieving healthy teeth and overall health. When eating, your teeth and gums are greatly impacted because you are not only feeding your body, but also the bacteria responsible in developing plaque or stains on your teeth.
有人说,吃什么就是什么。这就是说你所摄入的食物和饮料对你的牙齿健康和整体健康扮演着十分重要的角色。吃东西的时候,你的牙齿和牙龈会受到很大的影响,因为你不仅在为自己的身体提供营养,同时也会滋养导致牙齿斑块和污渍的细菌。
Plaque buildup may cover the entire surfaces of your teeth. The enamel of your teeth will deteriorate when starches or sugar mixed with the plaque, thus results to acid formation.
斑块的积累可能会覆盖住牙齿的整个表面。当淀粉与糖混合到斑块中,牙釉质会恶化,从而导致酸的形成。
为了牙齿健康,不应该吃的三种食物
Aside from the possibility of tooth decay, there are other dental issues that may occur such as breaking down of the gums and other structure of the teeth. To get healthy teeth, the best thing to do is to avoid the harmful foods that can ruin your dental structures.
除了蛀牙的可能性,还有可能出现其它的牙齿问题,例如:牙龈和牙齿其它构造的损坏。为了使牙齿健康,最应该做的就是避免有损牙齿结构的有害食物。
1. Sodas (and diet sodas)
1. 苏打水(和无糖汽水)
There is a valid reason why you should avoid drinks that contain soda. The sugary soft drink can satisfy your craving for something sweet, but the truth is that it can damage your dental health.
对于为什么你应该避免含有苏打的饮料这一问题是有充分理由的。含糖软饮料可以满足你对甜食的渴望,但事实上,它有损牙齿健康。
Likewise, the intense flavor of sodas can confuse your body to the natural sweet of fruits. Since sodas contain artificial sweeteners, it does not only cause tooth decay, but also encourages weight gain.
同样的,苏打水的强烈味道能够迷惑你的身体,认为这是水果的自然甜味。既然苏打水含有人造甜味剂,它不仅会引起蛀牙,还会使你增重。
2. Alcohol
2. 酒
Excessive intake of alcohol is not only bad for the liver, but also for the teeth and gums. Alcohol can cause dehydration, thus a person may feel that their mouth is dry due to reduced flow of saliva. This may result in tooth decay, and worse, oral infections like gum disease. Continuous intake of alcohol is one of the main culprits for mouth cancer.
过量饮酒不仅对肝脏有害,而且也对牙齿和牙龈有害。酒会导致脱水,因此由于唾液流量的减少,饮酒之人会觉得口干。这可能会导致蛀牙,更甚者会导致像牙龈疾病之类的口腔感染。不断饮酒是口腔癌的主要原因之一。
3. Sweet candy
3. 甜甜的糖果
It is not bad to eat candies as long as it is in moderation. However, eating too many will make your teeth expose to sugar that is harmful. The problem may aggravate if you eat hard candies that have higher content of sugar.
只要吃糖果的量适中,那么就没有什么不好的影响。但是,过量吃糖会使你的牙齿暴露在有害的糖中。如果你吃的糖果是含有大量糖份的硬糖果时,那么问题可能会更加严重。 |
