Brushing, flossing, using mouthwash and having regular checkups are all vitally important for good teeth, but its important not to overlook the power of a solid diet in dental health. 刷牙、用牙线、漱口水、常规口腔检查都对牙齿健康有好处,重视固体饮食的习惯也非常重要。 And even though we all know things like fizzy drinks, sweets or lollies and chocolate are bad for our pearly whites, there are more surprising foods that also contribute to bad teeth. 我们都知道碳酸饮料、糖果和巧克力对牙齿有伤害,除此之外,还有很多事物也对口腔没什么好处。 Dr Peter Chuang from the Australian Dental Association Oral Health Committee recently revealed the unexpected foods that are ruining your white smile. 澳大利亚口腔健康协会的皮特医生最近列举了一些对口腔健康有害的食物,非常出人意料。 It's hard to debate the fact that fruit is good for you. But is your daily lemon-infused water, orange and grapefruit doing much good for your teeth? 很难说水果对人是不是有益的,但是柠檬水、橘子、葡萄真的对牙齿有好处吗? 'Oranges and other citrus fruits such as lemons and grapefruits contain high levels of citric acid, which can lead to an increased risk of enamel erosion and teeth sensitivity,' Dr Chuang told Women's Health. 皮特医生告诉媒体《Women's Health》:“橘子和其他像柠檬、葡萄这样圆圆的水果含有大量柠檬酸,会造成牙齿表层腐蚀和牙齿敏感。” |
