Many people love sugary treats, however, so does the harmful bacterias that reside in the mouth. When bacteria feed on the sugar particles left after eating, it is more likely to produce acids that can wear down the enamel little by little.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-55 \" title=\"Dental Checkup\" src=\"https:\/\/dentistryofeastsacramento.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Dental-checkup-000062392638_Small-e1479125236207-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"Dental Checkup\" width=\"431\" height=\"286\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dentistryofeastsacramento.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Dental-checkup-000062392638_Small-e1479125236207-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dentistryofeastsacramento.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Dental-checkup-000062392638_Small-e1479125236207.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 431px) 100vw, 431px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you Know? An average person can consume around 30 kg of sugar every year! During festivities, the regular consumption of sweets increases since people love to eat more than they usually do. This is only one reason why dentists recommend patients to be extra mindful of their dental state during the holidays. Here are things patients should remember to have a merry season while taking care of their oral health and wellness.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When traveling, make sure to pack dental essentials like a travel-sized toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, and mouthwash.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is best to be prepared. Pack over the counter painkillers and gauze to deal with minor dental issues that may accidentally occur.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One practice that is essential to keep oral health in great shape is to brush twice, floss at least once, and rinse regularly. It is an effective countermeasure to the excessive consumption of substances that can be harmful to oral health.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Include a selection of raw, crunchy vegetables like carrots, red pepper, cucumber, and celery. Not only are these healthy and good for the body, but its crisp texture is also good for the teeth. When chewed on, it also acts as an abrasive that removes any buildups on the enamel. It also stimulates the production of saliva that is essential in washing away particles left in the mouth.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enjoy eating cheese since it can be the mouth\u2019s best friend! As a dairy product, it has a calcium content that can strengthen the teeth. It also increases the pH level of the mouth to neutralize harmful acids that can lead to cavities.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most important part of oral health care, schedule a dental appointment at Dentistry of East Sacramento.
