We've made it through February and are now in better shape from our favourite winter activities and don't forget the snow shoveling. Believe it or not Spring is on its way and soon our bright colourful wardrobes will make their way to the front of our closets. For those of you counting down the days, March 20th is the first day of Spring this year.

Fittingly, March is National Nutrition Month. Nutrition plays a huge role in how we look and feel and is pivotal to our oral and dental health.

	We hope that you had a wonderful Valentine's Day and took full advantage of Ontario's newest holiday, Family Day. With holidays based around spending time with loved ones, February was ideal for bringing awareness to heart related health issues.

March is National National Nutrition Month

Making good nutritional choices, especially if started at a young age, helps to maintain healthy teeth throughout your life. .

Combining the right nutritional choices with proper dental maintenance helps to ensures proper oral health.

How, you ask?
The accumulation of plaque, a film of saliva, mucus, bacteria, and food residue (particularly from food that are high in sugar and starch) that builds up on the surface of teeth, can lead to decay and gum disease.

This build up is limited by consistent brushing and flossing combined with healthy food choices.

Overall, the key to healthy teeth lays in a balanced diet, drinking plenty of water, limiting unhealthy snacks, proper oral care, and seeing your dentist on a regular basis.

Nutrition plays an important role in preventative dentistry.
Foods with antioxidant qualities help your body to fight bacteria that cause tooth decay, while foods high in calcium strengthen teeth and bones. A well balanced diet is important in all aspects of your life ...including your oral health.

Please ask us if you'd like more information on nutrition and your health.
