Rethink sugary drinks and food
Almost 50% of Australians are consuming too much sugar, which is a major cause of tooth decay. I often get asked "How do I get holes in my teeth"? To explain this simply, bacteria in the mouth uses sugar from foods and drinks to produce acid that dissolves and damages our teeth. Regular loss of enamel can lead to cavities and exposure of the inner layers of the tooth that become sensitive and painful. So make sure you limit your intake of sugar by opting for healthier snacks and drinks.
