ANSWER
Drinking milk makes your teeth stronger and protects tooth enamel. It also strengthens your jaw bone, which can help you keep your natural teeth longer, and fights tooth decay. For children, expectant mothers and women in general, milk is especially important.

- They contain casein proteins that form a protective film on the surface of your teeth. These proteins protect the hard outer layer of your teeth (known as enamel) from decay.
- They are rich in calcium and phosphorus, minerals that repair damage to your teeth. When acid from bacteria and food break down your enamel, these minerals are there to help.
- They’re mostly pH-neutral and can help neutralize acidic or sugary food and drinks. Be sure to consume dairy after your snack or meal.
- They stimulate saliva production. Saliva helps maintain and repair your teeth, and healthy amounts lead to a better smile.
