Our Story
🥤🥤TikTok’s Alternative Soda Trend Could Be 🥤🥤TikTok’s Alternative Soda Trend Could Be Tough on Teeth
Recent research finds acids in sugar-free drinks could erode tooth enamel and suggests limiting their consumption.The TikTok video of adding balsamic vinegar (an acid) to flavoured sparkling water (an acidic beverage) recently received more than 6.3 million views. The TikTok called it a ‘healthier’ alternative to soda and fizzy drinks.
However, the more acidic the drink, the greater the risk of tooth erosion with frequent consumption.Acidic foods and beverages can wear away the enamel that protects teeth, a process known as tooth erosion. Tooth erosion is permanent and may open the door for bacteria to cause cavities or infection. It can also make teeth appear discoloured, as white enamel is worn away to expose the yellow layer below called dentin.
🧑‍⚕️
Here are our top tips to reduce tooth erosion from acidic food and drink:
❤Use a straw, sip and swallow – do not swish or hold it in your mouth longer than you need to.
❤Wait an hour before brushing to give saliva a chance to naturally wash away acids and re-harden enamel.
❤Rinse with water, drink milk or enjoy a snack of cheese right afterward. Dairy and other calcium-rich foods can help neutralize acids.
❤Keep saliva flowing to keep acids under control and protect your teeth. You can do so by chewing sugarless gum.
❤Look for dental health products like enamel erosion control toothpaste and sugarless gum.
❤Practice good oral health every day: Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, clean between your teeth daily with floss or another interdental cleaner, eat a healthy diet that limits sugary foods and beverages, and visit a dentist regularly.

Consult-Scan-Print-Real time wear-FitAfter your initial consultation, Chris scans and prints your smile with you, allowing input throughout. Once he has designed your teeth digital, the design is printed out on the on-site 3D printer and is clipped onto your existing teeth. You can see in real time exactly what is planned before any treatment is started. By doing this, we can get predictable results which you have already seen and approved. How good is that?
