š„¤ It's not just what you drinkāit's how often you sip.
Frequent sipping on sugary drinks like soda, juice, sweetened coffee, or sports drinks keeps your teeth exposed to sugar and acids for longer periods. This repeated exposure can gradually wear away enamel and increase your risk of cavities.
If you enjoy sweet beverages, try drinking them with meals instead of sipping throughout the day. Better yet, choose water whenever you can to help rinse away sugars and keep your mouth hydrated.
Small changes in your daily habits can go a long way in protecting your smile for years to come.
