Your tooth enamel degrades from plaque, bacteria, excess sugar and acids, which turn into cavities in your teeth over time. Decay happens when your enamel is worn down by acidic substances in food and drinks. To better protect your enamel, avoid consuming too much sticky candies, sodas or sugary drinks, foods that can easily get stuck in your teeth, and sugary alcoholic beverages that dry out your mouth. Give us a call today at (407) 366-0391 to discuss the best way for you to take care of your teeth!
