Does Too Much Extra Sugar Over Christmas Cause Tooth Decay?

Christmas and sugar

It is difficult to estimate how much sugar an individual consumes over the Christmas holiday, as it can vary greatly depending on a number of factors such as age, gender, diet, and activity level. However, it is generally accepted that the average person consumes more sugar during the holiday season than at other times of the year due to an increase in the consumption of sweet treats and beverages. After all, it is Christmas!

Jamie's Sugar Rush

Jamie Olivier is on a crusade to reduce the sugar intake in the UK and quite rightly so! There were shocking images of children having all of their teeth extracted because of tooth decay solely due to sugar intake. This is unacceptable and should not be the case in the day and age we live in. Sugary drinks are one of the main causes, with up to 4 large tablespoons of added sugar in some well know drinks. Yes, that's right, 4 tablespoons! We are happy to provide education to all to reduce sugar consumption, eat well and adopt sound prevention regimes to prevent tooth decay. Simply call us- families, schools, sports clubs, community centres.... all are welcome.
