Up until a few years ago, bacteria were rarely mentioned with a positive, healthy meaning. Ever since probiotic product first appeared on the market, everything changed.

Sweetened beverages contain an average of about 10% sugar, or in other words, 2 dl of juice contains about 20 grams of sugar, which is a total of 80 calories.

Besides the fact that sweetened beverages aren’t good for the health of our organism and teeth, it is important to note that if we are already drinking them, we have to watch how we drink them because it is important for dental health.

For proper dental hygiene, it is essential to choose an appropriate toothbrush and toothpaste, use dental floss and/or an interdental toothbrush in order to remove all tooth deposits (plaque) from the tooth surfaces and the space between teeth. Thorough brushing is more important than the duration of brushing.
