You probably know that eating sugary foods can do harm to your teeth. But did you know that some kinds of foods can actually help your teeth. Eating them gives similar benefits to brushing and flossing though they most certainly should not be substituted for dental hygiene. Pick these five foods to fight bacteria, clean the teeth, remove plaque, and fight off bad breath.

Going to the dentist is not exactly the idea of a fun time. In fact many find it comparable with torture. You sit in a chair holding your mouth open until it aches all while having a bright light shone in your mouth with a strange person hovering over you while scraping your teeth. On some occassions you may even be lucky enough to have a screaming tool drill away
