ARE VEGETARIANS’ TEETH HEALTHY NOT CONSUMING ANIMAL FOOD?
.
Does not consuming animal food affect dental health? Are vitamins and calcium missing from their diet a problem for Turkey oral and dental health? Turkish Dentist made important warnings about some problems that vegetarians are not aware of.
According to the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD), an adult who has been eating a vegetarian diet for a long time may have a high risk of periodontal disease (gum disease) due to a lack of Vitamin D and calcium. A lack of calcium and vitamin D causes teeth to soften over time, further increasing the predisposition to tooth decay and periodontal disease. In addition, according to AGD, vegetarians who do not consume foods of animal origin, especially, are also at risk for nutritional deficiencies in terms of Vitamin B2 and vitamin B12, calcium and vitamin D.

THEY SHOULD DEFINITELY INFORM THE DOCTOR THEY ARE GOING TO TREATMENT WITH

WHY IS BEING A VEGETARIAN BAD FOR TEETH?
.
Why being a vegetarian can be bad for your teeth Researchers at the University of Michigan and Newcastle found that L-arginine, which is abundant in red meat, poultry, fish and dairy products, stopped the formation of dental plaques. In other words, this amino acid can break down the plaque and cavities of the teeth, which are known to cause gum disease, and treat gum disease. Vegetarians who do not consume meat are also directly deprived of this situation.

WHAT ARE THE FOODS THAT IMPROVE DENTAL HEALTH?
.
In addition, experts have also revealed that a diet rich in meat and dairy products improves dental health. Research has shown that meat, milk and seafood help teeth in two ways. First, they can help against acidity in the mouth. Second, they can aid in mineral re-mineralization, in which minerals are demineralized in an acidic environment. Vegetarians, on the other hand, lack these beneficial side effects of a meal. Accordingly, vegetarians can also help with re-mineralization with peanuts, green leafy (without focusing too much on spinach, which is not good for teeth) and seafood.

VEGETARIANS CAN TURN THIS INTO AN ADVANTAGE
.
Turkey dentist reviews, vegetarians to take vitamin supplements for foods they do not consume at home, also said, “vegetarians may seem to be more disadvantaged when it comes to dental health than those who eat meat, but they can turn it into an advantage. Eating raw vegetables and fruits is more advantageous than a soft diet, as it will provide mechanical cleaning of the teeth,” was said.
