New Vegan vs Omnivore Oral Health Study Results (via Mic the Vegan)

What I took away from this is the importance of fibre for oral health, it is a two part problem though. For gum health fruit, veg, etc seem excellent but fruit/starchy veg will increase cavity risk. Whereas for meat there is basically zero cavity risk but the oral biome it encourages worsens gum health. I eat fruit and starch at every meal so have the habit of chewing on xylitol gum/drinking green tea after meals (alongside twice daily flossing and brushing of course). No cavities so far so touch wood.
