You probably know it’s part of your teeth, but what is tooth enamel? Enamel is the protective outer layer of each tooth. It’s the hardest substance in your body, but it's prone to wear and tear and can become damaged over time due to plaque and acids from food and drinks.

The best way to look after your tooth enamel is by following a good oral care routine and a healthy lifestyle. Brush your teeth twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste, floss once a day, limit acidic and sugary foods and drinks and drink plenty of water.

If you’re suffering from enamel loss or damage, you may wonder how to restore tooth enamel. Your body can’t make new enamel, however, you can strengthen and restore tooth enamel. Use a fluoride toothpaste that’s designed for tooth enamel repair.
