Dental Erosion – Is it just about what we eat?
Sugary drinks and acidic foods can attack the enamel on your teeth but recent research shows that men may be more prone to dental erosion than women.
Key takeaways:
– Dental erosion is more common in people who have the eating disorder called bulimia.
– A diet high in acidic foods increases exposure to acid attacks on teeth.
– Saliva provides some natural protection against enamel erosion.
Talk to your dentist if you are concerned about enamel erosion on your teeth.
