Does Cola dissolve teeth It turns out to be a myth! But not entirely. Indeed, cola does not dissolve teeth, but the acids that it contains erode the enamel. In order not increase the damage, do not brush your teeth immediately after drinking. Instead, rinse with water and wait half an hour before brushing.

Do winter colds affect teeth Why do teeth deteriorate more often in winter What are focal diseases and where do they come from During the winter, up to 50% of teeth with hidden inflammation may begin to cause pain that would not be revealed under other conditions. This is due to the weakening of the body and the increased activity of the immune system, which must deal with warding off viruses and bacteria that attack during winter. Inflammation in the mouth can spread thro...ughout the body, leading to the so-called focal diseases. Thus, diseases of the joints, kidneys, and heart often occur. During the winter, consider supporting your immune system with vitamin C and fish oil, which increase immunity and indirectly prevent the activation of inflammatory foci in the mouth. Remember to replace your toothbrush frequently, and especially after being sick. Bacteria can grow there, causing illness to reoccur. While treating colds, be mindful of syrups that have a thick consistency. Many of these are sweetened syrups that remain stuck to the surface of the teeth for a long time and increase the risk of caries. Daily hygiene is the basis of healthy teeth, but remember that there is no substitute for regular visits to the dentist.

For years, popcorn has been at the top of the list of foods that cause the most damage to teeth. It currently shaes this infamous spot with caramel candies and toffee. Because we often eat popcorn while engaged in a show or movie, we do not pay attention to what happens to our teeth while grinding and chewing. That sometimes results in scratches or cracks. Small pieces of popcorn can also get stuck between the teeth or the remnants of shells can get under the gums and caus...e inflammation. Enjoy, but be mindful while munching

Tooth enamel is the hardest tissue in the human body; its hardness can be compared to that of granite! Perfect protection for your teeth! Be sure to take care of your teeth. Enamel is non-renewable tissue; once damaged, it will not regenerate.
