Milk = Strong Teeth

February 16, 2018

Do you know that drinking a glass of milk every day can make your smile look radiant and beautiful? How? A glass of milk every day can make your teeth strong and healthy, which contributes to making your smile beautiful. Start drinking a glass of milk today and continue it for as long as you live and you’ll surely keep your beaming smile.

Milk contains a high amount of Calcium, an essential mineral that strengthens your bone and teeth. In a document published by the American Journal Dentistry, cow’s milk can help re-harden tooth enamel destroyed by acidic drinks. Also, in a journal documented by Journal of Physics, cow’s milk provides the highest increase in enamel hardness compared to soya milk and distilled water. These two studies imply that drinking a cup of milk can really strengthen your teeth.

Apart from Calcium, milk also contains Phosphorus, Magnesium, Vitamin A, and Vitamin D. All these vitamins and minerals help maintain tooth development. Phosphorus, Magnesium and Vitamin D collaborate with Calcium to mineralize the teeth. Also, Vitamin D helps the teeth absorb Calcium more efficiently, while Vitamin A assists in the formation of Keratin, a key component in the production of strong enamel.

“Cheers to your next glass of milk, for strong and healthy teeth!”
