We have made it through the Winter months and hopefully everyone feels great from participation in Winter activities like skiing, snowshoeing and even shoveling.
	Spring is here and soon our warm weather wardrobes will make their way to the front of our closets. 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.

Making good nutritional choices, especially if started at a young age, helps to maintain a healthy body as well as healthy teeth.

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

How, you ask?
The accumulation of plaque, a film of saliva, mucus, bacteria, and food residue (particularly from foods 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 is multi factorial, including a balanced diet, proper hydration, limiting unhealthy snacks, proper oral care, and seeing your dentist on a regular basis.
