A member asked:

Is black tea good for teeth or tea mix with milk is good for teeth?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

No: Tea is neither good or bad for teeth if proper hygiene and visits to your dentist are followed. Milk is good for bone.

No: Black tea with or without milk has no effect on the teeth other than it could cause staining.
