Oral health is greatly influenced by the diet we consume every day. The foods we choose can have a positive or negative impact on the condition of our teeth and gums. Consumption of healthy foods not only helps maintain dental hygiene but also prevents various dental problems, such as caries, plaque, and gum disease.

Food/snacks make a major contribution to the acquisition of nutrients and energy for school-age children. Healthy and nutritious foods and snacks are important to consume because they can support the growth and development of students so that they can be healthy.
