southernman 73 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Good grief we have a resident tooth expert in the house!!! I'm in my 40's and been to a dentist 3 times in my life since leaving school, only have 1 filling and I love sugar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madyottie 82 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Teeth decay is caused by Bacteria. It has nothing to do with Sugar as such. A sugary environment can help the nasties to thrive tho. Which is probably why my teeth were slightly better when I ate nothing but meat for a while, because I pretty much lived on sugar free soft drinks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Which is probably why my teeth were slightly better when I ate nothing but meat for a while, because I pretty much lived on sugar free soft drinks. Likely due to the meat self cleaning. It is why they say eat an apple after eating other food. An apple is full of sugar, but the idea is that the Apple will self clean. Those with overactive Saliva glands tend to have far less need of fillings. When it comes to fizzy drinks, Coke is the worst because it has Phosphoric acid in it. But there are others as well that have Citric Acid and that can be corrosive to tooth enamel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jon 360 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I like ice with my rum Or a blender, ice and a dinghy full of fruit. This is defiantly the best way. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John B 106 Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Ginger ale is nearly up there with coke for sugar/ carb and salt. And for the G and T brigade, so is tonic. Very disappointing. As for the bacon , once you read something its hard to unread it......... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
