Taking care of your teeth and gums is essential to maintaining good overall health for a lifetime. An important part of keeping your mouth in great shape is protecting your teeth\u2019s enamel and preventing dental erosion. Enamel is the hard substance that protects the outside of your teeth. Once your enamel is damaged, your oral health is put at risk. Here\u2019s how you can recognize and prevent dental erosion from occurring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Dental Erosion<\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dental erosion takes place when your teeth\u2019s enamel is worn away by acids. Many things can cause erosion to occur, including<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drinking acidic drinks, such as soda or energy drinks<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Medications<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acid reflux<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heredity<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dry mouth<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consuming acidic or sugary foods<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signs of Erosion<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s important to recognize the early signs of dental erosion, so that you can prevent it from causing more serious damage to your teeth\u2019s enamel before it\u2019s too late. Symptoms include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sensitivity to hot or cold substances<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discoloration<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rounded teeth<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Translucent appearance on front teeth<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cracked teeth<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Small dents where your teeth bite down<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Prevent Dental Erosion?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best way to prevent dental erosion from occurring or progressing is being careful of what you eat and drink. To keep your enamel strong:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Limit the acidic foods you eat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drink water in place of acidic drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use a straw when you do consume acidic drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wait 30 minutes after eating before brushing your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
