S A C CAVITIES!

We can all agree the word “cavity” comes with fear and frustration. Not only does this diagnosis come with financial requirements but can be a difficult procedure for some children and adults. The two core values that help avoid cavities are diet and discipline. Most cavities in children can be prevented by diet. The S A C approach focuses on the Structure of 3-5 scheduled meals or snacks per day, Avoiding sugary, chewy, sticky, starchy foods and pop or juice. The last part is Choosing nuts, cheeses, vegetables, whole foods, and water. It can feel overwhelming to follow all recommendations, however, Kalina Dental is here to help educate and cheer you on!
