"Teeth is one of the digestive sys
tem. If there is interference, then the food can not be chewed properly, so the stomach and intestines to work harder. As a result the absorption of nutrients is compromised," he explained.
In fact, tooth decay can be prevented. "Teeth the child should be cleaned regularly, this habit should begin at an early age," said Rini. Also avoid sugary foods, sticky and chewy because it will stick to the teeth and form acids that can damage tooth decay, especially if not accompanied by tooth brushing habits.
Parents should also begin to introduce children to the dentist. "Do not bring children to the dentist after a tooth is damaged because the child will be afraid to go back. Invite your child to know the dentist to check his teeth," advises Eky.
