Keep your smile bright by avoiding
sugary beverages that invite tooth
decay and enamel erosion.
What Happens When
Enamel is Worn Away
Normally, your saliva
promotes a balance in your
mouth’s environment.
When you drink carbonated drinks,
your mouth gets more acidic, saliva
can’t keep up its buffering function
and more calcium is dissolved
than replaced.
Because children and young adults
have newer and weaker enamel, their
teeth are more susceptible to the
damage caused by sugary and acidic
drinks.
When tooth enamel is worn
away, teeth become stained
and cavity prone.
Carbonated Soft Drinks
Sugary soft drinks destroy teeth both
by causing decay and by erosion.
Both diet and regular contain citric
and phosphoric acids that wear away
tooth enamel.
Sports drinks, while seeming like
a safer alternative, are also sugary
and acidic and may be even more
damaging to teeth.
Fruit Juice
Whole fruit has more fiber, less
concentrated sugar and, in some cases,
less acid than juices.
If you need to drink juice, read labels
carefully to make sure it does not
contain added sugar.
What You Can Do
Prevent Damage
to Enamel
The most obvious way to avoid the
damage would be, of course, to avoid
drinking sugary beverages altogether.
To protect your teeth, drink them with
a meal, since exposure time is shorter
and food helps neutralize the acids.
Use a straw to keep acid and sugar
from having too much direct contact
with teeth, and swish water around
your mouth afterwards.
Dr. Nielsen provides preventive care,
including protective tooth sealants
and annual fluoride treatments.
Noble Dental Care is a family oriented
dental care clinic with dentists that care
about you and your health.
Give us the opportunity to give you the
smile of your dreams.
