Sugar isn’t just a nutrition conversation, it’s a dental one too... 🦷
The ADA has been actively advocating for stronger national guidance on sugar intake, and recent dietary guidelines now take a firmer stance: limiting added sugars is key to protecting overall health, including your smile.
From a dental perspective, even small amounts of sugar can increase the risk of tooth decay, which is why reducing sugary drinks and keeping added sugars under 10% of daily calories is so important.
Small changes = big impact when it comes to your smile! ✨
