Did you know that a hidden tooth infection could put your heart health at risk? In a study involving 101 people with myocardial infarctions and blocked coronary arteries, researchers found bacteria associated with infections in root canal-treated teeth. Root canals may be one reason oral bacteria can travel to the heart and arteries.

Most people don’t realize that sugar isn’t necessarily the worst thing for their teeth. Fruit juice can be 5 times more damaging than soda.

Some of the worst foods and drinks for your teeth include:

• Diet soda

• Candy

• Powdered starches

• High-fructose corn syrup

• Soda containing phosphoric acid

• Gummy candy

Citric acid is one of the worst things for your teeth, especially in its synthetic form. It acts as a calcium chelator, contributing to tooth enamel erosion. Citric acid is commonly added to beverages, so check ingredient labels and rinse your mouth with water after consuming acidic drinks.

Beyond tooth decay and enamel erosion, nutritional deficiencies may also contribute to other dental health problems. Bruxism, or teeth grinding, can be associated with low vitamin B1 or vitamin D3. Increasing these key nutrients may help address the underlying problem.

Jaw pain is another common complaint that can be difficult to resolve. Medications and surgery don’t always address the root cause. Supporting gallbladder health may also play a role in temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain relief.
