Orthodontists are increasingly concerned about acidic foods and drinks that can damage tooth enamel when consumed frequently or when sipped over extended periods of time. As a part of Orthodontic Health Month we have provided you with a chart to show which foods are more acidic/alkaline. While many high acid foods are healthy for your body, low acid foods are better for your teeth. Remember- during orthodontic treatment, it’s best to choose low acid foods when you sit down to eat.
