Eval: Even with minor reflux you can still have a bad taste in your mouth. Some other causes can be allergies or infection. It is possible that you have sleep apnea and this may cause acid reflux. If you snore, are overweight, are tired , you should talk to your doctor about sleep apnea.

Topical fluoride: Tooth erosion from reflex is due to the increased acid in your mouth. I would recommend topical Fluoride treatments at your dental office when you get your teeth cleaned. You may also request your dentist to fabricate topical Fluoride trays so that you can give yourself Fluoride treatments at home. Over the counter Fluoride rinse may help and there is a prescription Fluoride toothpaste.
