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.
