A member asked:
Does coffee, soda and all other carbonated drinks weakens the enamel of my teeth and if so should i have these drinks through moderation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Absolutely: Any acidic drinks (all the ones you listed and more) can cause enamel micro damage and if done frequently enough can lead to huge problems. Moderation is a very good idea. Reduce frequency, reduce amount, and reduce duration (meaning don't take too long to finish your drink).
