Dark berries, like Oregon’s own Marionberry, contain loads of rich antioxidants. Some even contain natural compounds, like polyphenols, to fend off harmful bacteria in the mouth.

Whether enjoyed fresh picked, in pies, jams, or juices, here are tips for your berry summer.

Have berries during mealtimes rather than throughout the day

Berries contain loads of natural sugar so its best to limit the number of times your teeth are exposed to both sugar and acid.


Pair with less acidic foods to reduce acid erosion

Great combs are fruit with nuts, fruit juice and yogurt, or wine and cheese!!


Add Gleam Gloss to teeth cleaning and whitening services

This fluoride varnish can prevent new cavities, slow down or stop decay from getting worse. If tooth decay is just starting, it can also help repair.
