The Role of Water & Saliva in Keeping Your Mouth Healthy

 Saliva = Natural Defense

Neutralizes acids that cause tooth decay

Washes away food particles

Contains minerals (calcium, phosphate) that strengthen enamel 

Water = Best Mouth Cleanser

Rinses away food debris after meals

Keeps mouth hydrated and prevents dry mouth

Fluoridated water helps fight cavities 

What Happens Without Enough Saliva/Water?

Dry mouth → higher risk of cavities, gum disease & bad breath

Acidic environment → faster tooth erosion 

Pro Tip: Sip plain water throughout the day & avoid sugary/acidic drinks.
