Prevention and Protection

There are simple steps you can take to help protect your teeth from acid wear:

Drinking Directions:
Don't swish acidic drinks around in your mouth – swallow them quickly. Use a straw to direct liquids away from your teeth.                                                                                    

Toothbrush Timing:
Don't brush your teeth right after eating when the enamel is at its softest. Wait for at least an hour before brushing. You can also brush before eating and rinse with water after eating.


Paste Protection:
Brush twice a day, every day with a toothpaste like ProNamel® from Sensodyne ® which is specially designed to help protect your teeth from the effects of acid wear.

Visit your Dentist:
Have regular dental check-ups and follow your dentist's advice.
