It’s nearly cherry season. Tart, tangy and sweet, this ever-popular flavorful fruit has collected a crowd of fans.
But should you think twice about biting into cherries, out of concern for your smile and teeth?
Let’s begin by bringing up the benefits.
Great news, right? Plus, they are delicious and easy to incorporate into a variety of recipes. (Though they are just as tasty on their own.)
Two words of warning—avoid biting down on pits as this can lead to a dental emergency and follow up your noshing with a big glass of water.
And, just as importantly, don’t rush to the sink for a tooth brushing session right away afterward, as you may damage softened enamel. Wait at least half an hour.
