Very relieved to see this:
While we’re on the subject, you shouldn’t necessarily worry about how long it takes you to finish your morning coffee, regardless of what you may have seen recently on social media, Julie Cho, DMD, a dentist in New York City, tells SELF. Despite claims that prolonged acid exposure from coffee can be harmful, chances are that if you’re drinking coffee like you normally would, you’re probably fine. “Even if you are sipping coffee for hours, you are intermittently swallowing and closing your lips around your teeth, meaning that your natural saliva is constantly cleansing your teeth,” Dr. Cho explains. “You would need to swish [coffee] continuously for a long period of time for [the acid] to be detrimental.”
I started looking for information about coffee because I am known to drink my coffee slowly all day long…
Surely she means black coffee. If you add milk and especially sugar, I’m sure the teeth will be affected. Be a man and drink coffee black!
Sugar is definitely bad for adding to your coffee, but I’ve read elsewhere that milk can help nullify the negative impacts of coffee.
