Erosion of tooth enamel from soda pop is permanent

You may be saving calories by drinking diet soda, but when it comes to enamel erosion of your teeth, it's no better than regular soda.

In the last 25 years, Kim McFarland, D.D.S., associate professor in the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Dentistry in Lincoln, has seen an increase in the number of dental patients with erosion of the tooth enamel - the protective layer of the tooth. Once erosion occurs, it can't be reversed and affects people their whole life.

  1. Diet and regular sodas erode the protective, calcium-based enamel barrier on your teeth by lowering the pH level in your mouth. The addition of phosphoric and citric acids to sodas is the major contributor to this increase in acidity. Artificial and natural sweeteners also contribute because they serve as food for lactic acid-producing bacteria. Other acids, present in trace amounts, further add to the ability of diet and regular sodas to erode the enamel coating your teeth.Nowadays many clinics are coming up with dental hygiene and sanitation awareness for people to keep their mouth clean. Also on the importance of maintaining proper oral care.
