While popular and tasty drinks aren\u2019t always terrible for your oral health, there are some that are worse than others. Taking care of your mouth means more than brushing and flossing every day. Foods and drinks that you consume also have a drastic impact on the formation of common issues like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artistrysmilecenter.com\/general-dentistry.html\">cavities and gum disease<\/a>. Read on to learn about some popular beverages that you shouldn\u2019t drink excessively. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While drinking a glass of red wine a day has been shown to\noffer health benefits for your body, consuming too much wine can cause problems\nfor your teeth since it\u2019s so acidic. Whether your wine of choice is red or\nwhite, both contain enough acid to deteriorate tooth enamel, leaving your pearly\nwhites vulnerable to decay and infection. Next time you sip on a glass of wine,\ndrink a cup of water afterward to help neutralize any acids in your mouth and\nwash the stain-causing tannins away. Also, be sure to wait at least 30 minutes\nbefore brushing your teeth to protect your softened enamel from erosion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flavored Coffee <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC2848806\/\">study<\/a>\npublished in the Journal of Conservative Dentistry found that drinking black,\nplain coffee can protect your teeth from cavities. However, when you introduce\nsugary flavorings like syrups, it completely eliminates the oral health\nbenefits it has to offer. Instead, you create an ideal environment for oral\nbacteria to thrive in. If you indulge in delicious flavored coffees every now\nand then, just be sure to brush your teeth afterward to clear any harmful\nsubstances away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Carbonated Beverages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to wine, carbonated beverages are acidic, some of\nthem even contain high amounts of added sugar. The acidity can be rough on your\nenamel, softening it and causing it to erode, while the sugar can aid in the\ndevelopment of cavities. If you\u2019re craving a carbonated drink, sparkling water\nis your best choice. Whenever you have the choice, drink it through a straw to\nprevent it from coming into direct contact with your teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alcoholic Beverages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beer is the most acidic alcoholic beverage there is, due to\na combination of fermentation, yeast, sugars, and wheats, which are all harsh\non the enamel. Not only can these be rough on your gut health, but they can\nalso increase your risk of experiencing oral health problems. Because most\ndrinks made with hard liquor are mixed with sweet fruit juices and flavorings,\nit\u2019s best to avoid these as well. To reduce the chances that your night cap\nwill impact your oral health, wait 30 minutes until after you drink it to brush\nyour teeth, and try mixing your drinks with plain, tonic, or soda water\ninstead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people consume these beverages but are unaware of how\nit will impact the health of their teeth and gums. Now that you know why they\ncan harm your pearly whites, you can take precautionary measures to protect\nyour mouth from cavities and gum disease. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Christy Cox is passionate about providing each of her\npatients with high-quality dental treatments in an environment where they feel\nwelcomed and comfortable.
