Vitamin C

How is Vitamin C important to your oral health?

Lack of Vitamin C causes gum disease and gingivitis. This leads to swollen and spongy gums that bleed easily. Poor gum health can, in turn, lead to tooth mobility. Vitamin C has also long been know to be very important for immunity and health. Decreased immunity can lead to oral infections (ie. Candidiasis) and impaired taste.
