You in front of the screen The Spring Festival party was great! I ate a lot of drinks and snacks. But do you know? Common drinks on the table It may be quietly "eating" away your tooth enamel Today, Dr. Huaxi will take you through Those "tooth assassins" hidden on the dining table 1 Carbonated drinks Damage: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Image source: Photo Network The pH value of carbonated drinks is usually low. The phosphoric acid and carbonic acid in them will directly corrode the enamel of teeth. Long-term consumption of carbonated drinks may cause tooth demineralization, sensitivity, caries and even tooth loss. 2 Fruit Drinks Damage: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Image source: Photo Network Drinks such as orange juice and apple juice contain large amounts of fruit acid and sugar. Fruit acid can easily corrode tooth enamel, while sugar helps feed bacteria to produce acid, which is a double blow to teeth! 3 Sports Drinks Damage: ⭐⭐⭐ Image source: Photo Network Many people like to drink a bottle of "sports drink" to replenish electrolytes after exercise, but energy drinks usually contain a lot of sugar and acidic ingredients, and their pH value is low. Drinking them for a long time will also be very corrosive to teeth. 4 Lactic acid bacteria beverage Damage: ⭐⭐⭐ Image source: Photo Network The sugar content of lactic acid bacteria beverage is ≈10 sugar cubes per bottle, which is really high in sugar! Drinking a bottle is like throwing a party for oral bacteria. To sum up, the main culprits of beverage damage to teeth are two words - acid + sugar! Acid: directly dissolves the hydroxyapatite in the enamel, making the teeth thinner and more sensitive. Drinking a sip of ice water feels like an electric shock. Sugar: Feeds bacteria and makes them produce acid, causing cavities, plaque, and tooth decay to appear. 1. Insert a straw If you really want to enjoy drinking beverages and protect your teeth, is there any way? Yes, that is to insert a straw and pass it through the throat, bypassing the teeth! It reduces the chance of acid and sugar contacting the tooth surface, which is simple, crude and effective. 2. Quick victory and quick victory Don't delay drinking it! The longer the drink stays in your mouth, the higher the damage value! 3. Rinse your mouth with water Rinse your mouth immediately after drinking or chew sugar-free gum to quickly neutralize the acidic environment. 4. Maintain good oral hygiene habits Brush your teeth every morning and evening, use fluoride toothpaste, and floss after meals. Clean your teeth at least once a year to detect tooth decay early and treat it early! Tooth enamel damage is irreversible, so don’t wait until your teeth hurt. Finally, it is recommended that everyone try to drink purified water, sugar-free tea, milk or soda water. These drinks are relatively less harmful to teeth.
