More Dubai residents than ever are adopting plant-based diets — and for good reason. Vegan eating has been linked to lower rates of heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers. But your dental health deserves attention too.
The benefits for your teeth
A diet rich in fruits and vegetables means more antioxidants, which reduce inflammation in your gums. Crunchy vegetables like celery and carrots naturally clean your teeth as you eat them, stimulating saliva production that neutralises acids.
Watch out for these
Vitamin B12, calcium, and vitamin D are often lower in vegan diets — all essential for strong teeth and healthy gums. Consult with our dentists about supplementation. Acidic fruits like citrus and tomatoes, while healthy, can erode enamel over time.
