Hi :), You're right. For ten years I noticed my teeth are immediately white after a few bites of apples. I'm getting the best from natural foods and fruits. Plus, apples are an energy boost for me. I eat them after breakfast or after dinner when I know I will doing many chores or projects just to stay awake. Apples work! Have fun in life! E'ditReplied By Common Sense (Nj) on 07/06/2015
If you eat an apple instead of brushing multiple issues will cause you to loose said teeth. Teeth decay due to acids and sugars. Both of which are contained in an apple. Now lets just say you are smart enough to follow the apple with something basic. Nothing completely dissolves the biofilm that sits on the tooth. This film is a combination of acid producing bacteria, a sticky lattice, and minerals like calcium and fluorides that become sharp to you underlying gingiva or pink tissue and the bone beneath. This agitation causes an inflammatory response from the underlying tissue that destroys bone and then causes further areas of teeth that are more prone to decay or causes loss of teeth due to the tooth no longer having proper bone support. Brushing with an apple may been acceptable when people didn't have proper brushing techniques or materials, but even then those people lost teeth at high rates and early ages. But, good luckReplied By Dmohr (Pa) on 01/31/2018
He said eat an apple not use it as a tooth brush. The acid from an apple is a good acid btw which converts to an alkaline. Chewing on chocolate on the other hand is bad acid.Replied By Rusty (TX) on 09/27/2022
Are green apples ok? bc I prefer green but if it's only in red that's fine.
