* [[molybdenum]] is essential for building bones and teeth.
* [[Propolis]] may help fight cavities, a 2003 study from Biological & Pharmaceutical Bulletin shows. In laboratory research, scientists found that compounds found in propolis helped inhibit the growth of mutans streptococci (an oral bacteria known to contribute to the development of cavities). The study suggests that propolis may also help stop mutans streptococci from sticking to the teeth.
* [[Raisins]] : A compound found in raisins – oleanolic acid – has been proven to prevent cavities and tooth decay by killing gum disease-causing bacteria and by strengthening teeth.
