📝Abstract

Oral health is important for overall health of the body. We are what we eat. We should be aware of the nutrition and balanced diet we take. Numerous oral health diseases are a result of lack of knowledge, care and poor diet. Diet should be rich in micro as well as macro nutrients. In this article we have discussed various factors associated with the common oral diseases, their causes and the role of nutrition. The role of sugars in dental caries is well known but its prevention is still not controlled due to its multifactorial behaviour. Periodontal diseases which are accumulated over the years and present late in life has many risk factors which are discussed at length.
