The process known as acid erosion can lead to : changes in tooth
shape, tooth discoloration and sensitive teeth. If
left untreated long term restorations may be needed.
Try to eliminate acidic food exposure. (no more
than 4 times a day).
Some foods on the acidic ph level:
cola,oranges,honey,pears,strawberry yogurt.
So , the opposite of the scale would be foods high in calcium,
eggs,milk,cheese, and of course water!
Discourage children from sipping, holding, swishing acidic drinks
around in their mouths.
Children should brush their teeth twice a day for at least 2 minutes each
time. Always use a fluoride toothpaste. One may be prescribed by
your child's pediatric dentist or pedatrician.
