Everything you eat and drink affects the health of your body and your mouth, but
some of the most concentrated and destructive combinations of acid and sugar
are found in the beverages that many of us consume every day. Pathogenic oral
bacteria thrive in a sugary, acidic environment. Enamel erosion and decay are
most often caused by an excess of these two dietary elements. However, even
without the presence e of pathogenic oral bacteria, acid alone can erode tooth
enamel and eventually destroy your teeth.
Enamel erosion begins at a pH level 5.5 or lower. Acidic foods and beverages will
certainly change the pH of your mouth for varying amounts of time, but the most
destructive source of acid in the mouth comes from the bacteria itself. When oral
bacteria feeds on sugar and other dimple carbohydrates, they release acid as a
byproduct. As long as the bacteria are continuously provided with the simple
sugars they need, the pH of your mouth will continue to become more acidic.
Even a neutral or alkaline beverage will eventually contribute to the erosion of
your teeth if that beverage contains simple carbohydrates or added sugars.
That best daily beverage you can drink fore that health of your body is plain,
unflavored water. When you choose to drink something else, however, please
consider the effects that beverage may be having on your teeth. This chat
contains many of the most common soft drinks, energy drinks, juices, and sports
beverage on the market. If a drink you consume regularly is not on this list, we
encourage you check the ingredients for added sugars and sources of acid, or
even to test the pH for yourself.
