Sipping Fruit Tea Erodes Teeth

If you enjoy drinking fruit teas and lemon-infused water, here’s some bad news. A study just published in the British Dental Journal found that certain habits linked to dietary acid consumption increase the likelihood of developing severe erosive tooth wear. Dr Saoirse O’Toole, lead author of the study and Clinical Lecturer in Prosthodontics from King’s College London in the UK, helps us chew on this study.
