Green tea is believed to be an excellent alternative for oral health. This drink contains compounds that have the potential to control inflammation as well as fight bacterial infection. It is loaded with antioxidants, which are widely believed to be therapeutic.

In a Japanese survey involving nearly 1,000 men, it was found that participants who consumed green tea on a regular basis had healthier gums than individuals who did not. In a German study, the researchers had the same results when the participants were asked to chew candies that contained green tea extracts.

The unique beverage has also been found to help reduce tooth loss. In a Japanese research study published in 2010, it was found that women and men who consume one or more cups of green tea on a daily basis were more capable of holding on to their natural teeth.
