Caffeine and Teeth

[Pong]

Although caffeine drinkers, particularly coffee drinkers, may find over time that their teeth develop brown stains, the problem is not the caffeine. Rather, it is the dark liquid itself that changes tooth color. Even non-caffeinated colas can cause staining.

as long as you keep brushing your teeth before go to bed and keep seeing your dentist, it won't be a big problem

I would think moderation would be a important suggestion. Cheers

A problem for espresso folks..particulalry for the vain (me?). I use baking soda to brush my teeth several times a week, along with regular whitening toothpaste in between.

Don't they have special toothpastes for things like things? Also, I would think you simply have to be more vigilant in addressing your oral hygiene.

the effects of coffee on your teeth,Mainly just staining.

 

[jhonlarry12]

i totally agree with alphawave7 .. u should brush your teeth with baking soda..

 

[piatras4]

yea, it ruins the enamel on your teeth.

I drink 2 cups of coffee every day, and brush my teeth twice a day -- no staining has resulted. I'm sure it would/could if one didn't brush his/her teeth often enough.

It is recommended that we drink coffee out of a straw to minimize how much of the drinks come into contact with our teeth. We can also see our doctor regularly to reduce the stains from our teeth.

Not only ruins the enemal of your teeth, also it diminsh the shining of teeth and give them yellow color..

 

[andyrodgers]

no cup of coffee can leave stains on your teeth only if you brush them on daily bases.

 

[brianwekes]

Well, you can try consuming through a straw. This makes it possible for the coffee to go down without cleansing against your tooth so it decreases the discoloration. Fewer discolorations indicate your tooth remain white and shiny more time.

I agree, and if you drink 1-2 cups of coffee per day you will not have any problems..

Caffeine impairs the absorption and metabolism of calcium. This mode increases the acidity of your blood, thus forcing your body to pull calcium from its stores in bones and teeth to neutralize the environment.
