Did you know that cheese is one of the healthiest foods for your teeth?

Hard Cheeses are higher in fat content.

The calcium, phosphorus and protein found in cheese strengthen tooth enamel (the outer coating of teeth).

Cheese is also an excellent saliva stimulator, which is important for two reasons.

*Saliva helps clear out the particles left in your mouth after a meal. Bacteria in your mouth would otherwise feed on these particles and produce acids that cause cavities in your teeth.

*Saliva also helps neutralize post-meal acid, further decreasing the chance that you will develop cavities.

*Research suggests that cheese stimulates saliva better than most foods.

How many types of cheese do you recognize? 1-20 take a guess.
