What can be done to prevent acid erosion?
To help protect your teeth against the effects of dietary acids, there are several steps that can be taken: • Avoid brushing teeth immediately after consuming acidic food or drinks as this is when the enamel is at its softest. It is best to brush teeth before meals or wait at least 1 hour after eating before brushing teeth • Drink acidic drinks quickly – don’t swish them around or hold them for prolonged periods within your mouth.
