How to Balance Your Mouth’s pH for Healthier Teeth

October 21, 2019

If you want to keep your teeth healthy and your smile beautiful, then it is critical to balance the pH of your mouth. Even if you have undergone a teeth-whitening treatment, it is essential to maintain the result for the long term. Teeth whitening in Thailand is a popular cosmetic dental procedure for enhancing one’s smile.

To accomplish it, we have to focus on two areas:

  1. Your diet
  2. Your dental hygiene habits

By optimizing these two aspects, you will bring the pH of your mouth to perfect balance, which will allow you to combat several dental diseases and to improve and maintain the appearance of your teeth.

pH Insights to Understand It

To measure pH, we use a scale that ranges from 1 to 14, where 1 is the most acidic, whereas 14 is the most alkaline. In short, pH measures how acidic or alkaline an environment is.

For optimal dental health, it is recommended to keep the pH neutral, in this case, between 5.6 and 7.9. Anything lower than that will leave you exposed to developing several dental diseases such as cavities.

When your mouth turns acidic, then it allows bacteria to grow and spread easily, which can lead to a plethora of mouth problems ranging from foul breath to serious issues like gingivitis.

Evidently, it will also cause your teeth to stain and turn yellowish.

In fact, the pH level is used as a biomarker for diagnosing diseases such as periodontitis. It allows you to see how important it really is, and why it matters to optimize it.

How to Optimize Your Diet

Now that you know how the scale works and what it measures, you need to know how to optimize your diet because your pH level will depend on what foods you eat. Therefore, we will let you know what foods to avoid and which ones to eat more often.

Similarly, we have acidic and alkaline foods, and evidently, if you want to keep your pH neutral or alkaline, then you need to reduce your intake of acidic foods. Here you have the list:

  • Sugar (all of its forms: glucose, fructose, lactose, etc.)
  • Starches
  • Processed carbs

Therefore, the key is to reduce sugary foods – and that includes fruit – as well as starches and processed carbs, because they allow bacteria to create more lactic acid, which gives space to multiple dental diseases.

On the other hand, you also need to include these alkaline foods:

  • Blueberries
  • Leafy greens
  • Cucumbers
  • Onions
  • Avocados
  • Lemons
  • Broccoli
  • Sweet potatoes

All of these foods will help you to turn your mouth neutral-alkaline and keep your teeth in perfect state.

The Right Dental Hygiene Habits to Follow

Once you have sorted out your diet, you need to take care of your dental hygiene habits. It all starts with choosing the right products that are not acidic and actually clean your teeth beyond the surface.

The pH of Your Mouth and Teeth Whitening

If you are thinking about undergoing a teeth-whitening treatment, or perhaps you have already done it, then you need to know that the pH of your mouth will play a determining role on your results.

If you keep it between neutral and alkaline, then your teeth will look amazing for a long time.

However, if you let it turn acidic, then the results will not last for long.
