Common reasons for tooth decay in children

Posted on: 12/Aug/2015 3:33:30 PM
When a mom of two, who consciously feeds her children with healthy foods and snacks, found that one of her kids had developed two cavities after just six months since a dentist visit, it showed the need to analyse the food intake. 

She found that the so called healthy granola bars had more sugar than a chocolate bar. This goes for store bough fruit juices and some brands of honey as well. The sugar in the foods causes tooth decay. What was the icing on the proverbial cake was the bedtime ritual of drinking milk. 

Say experts, While milk during the day is fine, the lactose in it is a type of sugar and can be harmful at night, as when we are asleep we produce less of the saliva that would neutralise it... You shouldn`t give your kids milk after they have already brushed their teeth at night.
