If you want to have a pair of healthy teeth, you must pay attention to the health care of teeth and eat more calcium rich food. Especially in infants and young children, we should pay attention to the choice of diet. Parents should give their children more vegetables that can promote chewing, such as celery, cabbage, spinach, leek, kelp, etc., which is conducive to the development of mandible and the tidiness of teeth. Often eating vegetables can also increase the content of molybdenum in teeth and enhance the hardness and firmness of teeth. In addition, eating more hard food is conducive to the fitness of teeth, such as corn, sorghum, beef and some nuts, such as acorns, melon seeds, walnuts, hazelnuts, etc.
