Dental Insurance Plus – Dental Hazard of Drinking Coffee and Tea
Although one of America’s favorite morning and afternoon beverages may be coffee and tea, they have compounds called tannins, which can cause unsightly stains and discoloring of your teeth. Therefore, to avoid staining your teeth, try limiting the amount of coffee and tea drinking throughout the day. If you drink coffee and tea, do so with a straw to limit contact with your teeth. Avoid slowly drinking these types of drinks. It can be fun to hang out at the local coffee house and baby one cup of coffee during your hour or more stay, but it is not so fun for your teeth.
