Ok, what does water have to do with our teeth?
More than you’d think. Water helps your mouth stay comfortable and balanced because it supports saliva, and saliva is what helps rinse away food, neutralize acids, and keep things from feeling dry and irritated. When your mouth is dry, teeth can feel more sensitive, breath can get worse, and it’s easier for plaque to stick around.
National Hydration Day is a good reminder to keep a water bottle nearby, especially during summer. If dry mouth has been an issue for you lately, bring it up at your next visit. We can talk through what’s causing it and simple ways to help.
