Calcium is inseparable from vitamin D. This fat-soluble vitamin also plays a very important role in maintaining teeth because it helps absorb calcium. Calcium is also a mineral that helps strengthen bones, but also contributes to reinforcing tooth enamel. And we are lucky that it can be obtained from different sources: from foods such as oily fish or eggs, from exposure to the sun and from food supplements.

Phosphorus is a mineral that is rarely talked about, but it plays a fundamental role in dental care. Did you know that it is one of the most abundant minerals in the body? Maintaining its levels at an ideal level depends on your habits. Meat and seafood are excellent sources of phosphorus. If you follow a vegan or vegetarian diet, you can obtain this nutrient from foods such as soy and lentils. And how can we forget magnesium in this list of vitamins and minerals?

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) highlights that this mineral supports the maintenance of teeth in normal conditions, and is also essential for preventing the appearance of cavities.
