When I think of 4 th of july I think about bbq burgers and a nice cool drink 😀
I know this time of year people that drink alcohol like to enjoy a drink or to with their
friends for fun.
What does alcohol do to your teeth?
- Staining: weather its because of the chromogens attach to tooth enamel that’s
compromised by the acid in alcohol, staining teeth. Or the mixing of liquor with
dark sodas or drinking red wine. - Dryness: either due to the high alcohol in drinks or from dehydration of drinking
alcohol. - Other damages can be due to mix drinks and the added citrus, which may cause a
PH level change in the oral cavity.
How to prevent damage - Drink lots of water between and all day to help hydrate but also balance the ph
and reduce amount of stains - Use pronamel toothpaste to help strengthen the enamel
- Ask your dental professional for further instructions since every patient is
different
