\"lollipopEveryone loves to eat. Whether it\u2019s a savory feast full of hearty foods or a refreshing summer treat, there are few things as satisfying as biting into something delicious. Unfortunately, not all the goodies that we love to consume are safe for our oral health. In fact, some foods could send you straight to your emergency dentist in Richardson<\/a>. Here are a few yummies that we suggest you be cautious around.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ice<\/h2>\n

Ice is quite hard, and even though it isn\u2019t as hard as your tooth enamel, your teeth are brittle enough that they\u2019re vulnerable to breakage. Unless you want a brand-new chip in your smile and a major toothache, it\u2019s best to use ice to chill your favorite drinks, not as a snack by itself.<\/p>\n

Hard Candies<\/h2>\n

Not only are hard candies tough enough to break your teeth, but they\u2019re also loaded with sugar. Exposing your teeth to the sweet stuff for extended periods of time contributes to decay, dry mouth, and more.<\/p>\n

Citrus Fruits<\/h2>\n

Citrus fruits are quite acidic. The acid can easily wear away your tooth enamel and lead to decay. It\u2019s best to enjoy these fruits in moderation, and when you do indulge, be sure to rinse your mouth with water afterward.<\/p>\n

Sticky Foods<\/h2>\n

Gummy bears, dried fruits, and other sticky goodies can cling to your teeth and get stuck in your mouth, exposing your pearly whites to sugar for lengthy periods of time. Moreover, if you\u2019ve recently had a crown or filling placed, the sticky food can dislodge your restoration.<\/p>\n

Coffee<\/h2>\n

Coffee is an acidic beverage, and many people add loads of sugar to make it more palatable. The result is a drink that can wear away enamel, stain your teeth, and dry out your mouth. To make sure your coffee habit doesn\u2019t lead to a dental emergency, please resist the urge to make it sweeter. Instead, try adding a bit of milk to cut the acidity and get some calcium.<\/p>\n

Soda<\/h2>\n

Soda is anathema to good oral health. It is packed full of sugar, acid, and dyes. Please avoid it as much as possible. If you do decide to have some, rinse your mouth with water afterward.<\/p>\n

Potato Chips<\/h2>\n

Potato chips can easily get stuck between your teeth. Not only is this uncomfortable, but having food lodged in your smile for hours at a time can contribute to decay. When you have a crunchy snack, it\u2019s important that you floss soon afterward.<\/p>\n

Alcohol<\/h2>\n

Consuming too much alcohol can dehydrate you and lead to dry mouth, and a dry mouth can lead to cavities and bad breath. Plus, most cocktails are full of sugar. Drink in moderation, and sip some water while you\u2019re enjoying your adult beverage.<\/p>\n

Sports Drinks<\/h2>\n

Sports drinks, like soda, often contain oodles of sugar. To keep yourself hydrated, why not opt for plain water? Or, if you\u2019re craving the electrolytes that come with a sports drink, choose a variety that contains little to no sugar.<\/p>\n

Want to prevent a dental disaster? Avoid or limit your consumption of the above foods \u2014 your teeth will thank you!<\/p>\n
