La limpieza a base de zumos puede ser estupenda para desintoxicar el cuerpo, haciéndole sentir que lleva un camino recto hacia la salud perfecta. Subirse al carro de la limpieza con zumos tiene beneficios para la salud. Pero tiene algunos efectos adversos, sobre todo en los dientes y las encías.
Los zumos de fruta no only damage your teeth, but they’re also detrimental to your roots and gums. They can cause your insulin levels to go up and down. Juice can alter your collagen structure when you drink it often, affecting your gums’ health. Collagen fibers are the ones that hold your teeth in place, and if they’re damaged, you can lose bone and cause mobility of your teeth.
Apart from that, fruits and vegetables have a high acid content. The bacteria in our mouths love the acidic environment to multiply and cause irreversible damage. The acid environment can cause decalcification and damage the outer surface and, eventually, the inner surface of your tooth structure. Their effects are somehow similar to drinking fizzy beverages. Although the acids in fruit and vegetables are healthy, it isn’t the case when you consume them as a concentrated juice. Too much acid in your mouth can lead to teeth sensitivity because the juice is worn down and can erode your enamel. Once the enamel is gone, your bite can cause your teeth to shorten since dentin, the softer layer, is exposed.
Juice cleanse can further cause damage to your oral health if you add a bit of concentrated sugar. The sugar in fruit juice can stick to your teeth and fill those crevices in your mouth where bacteria are found. When it does, the bacteria in your mouth will convert the sugar into acid, causing erosion to your tooth enamel. It may also irritate your gums while causing infection.
Pero esto no significa que deba evitar la limpieza con zumos.
There are tips to prevent the destructive effects of a juice cleanse so you can protect your tooth enamel. One of these ways is to avoid fruit juice. Instead, opt for vegetable juice as it contains less amount of sugar.
Then, when you drink your juice, drink it through a straw. Avoid swishing it in your mouth. Swishing can only give the sugar a chance to stick tightly to your teeth.
After drinking your juice, make sure you drink a glass of water. This way, the juice residue won’t stick to your teeth.
Brushing your teeth right after drinking your juice is not a good idea, and the sugar from the juice will be converted to acid that softens tooth enamel. You must wait at least 30 minutes before brushing.
