Baby Dental – Sports Drinks
Sports Drinks Harmful Effects on Teeth.
Many parents try and limit the amount of soda their child drinks, but sports drinks can be just as harmful to their children’s teeth. Most sports drinks are quite acidic (pH 3-4) and may lead to dental erosion and demineralization if taken to excess. One study found that 57% of 11-14 year-olds had evidence of some dental decay.
