California Dental Insurance – Coffee Drinking and Dental Health

01/08/24 12:46 PM

According to a survey conducted by the National Coffee Association in 2020, approximately 62% of Americans drink coffee daily.

With that said, if you enjoy drinking coffee daily, it could be hard to maintain white teeth. Coffee’s dark color and acidity can cause the teeth to yellow over time. Fortunately, it is one of the easier stains to treat with various whitening methods. Talk to your dentist if you are concerned about discoloration of your teeth.  

If you want to avoid staining your teeth while enjoying your daily cup of coffee, here are a few tips: 

1. Drink water after coffee: Drinking water after a cup can help wash away any lingering coffee particles in your mouth. Drinking water can help reduce the amount of staining that occurs when just drinking coffee. 

2. Use a straw: Using a straw can help you avoid direct contact between the coffee and your teeth. Drinking through a straw can help reduce the amount of staining that occurs. 

3. Brush your teeth: Brushing your teeth after drinking coffee can help remove any coffee particles on your teeth. Brushing your teeth can help prevent staining and keep your teeth looking bright and white. 

4. Drink coffee in moderation: Drinking coffee in moderation can help prevent staining. Drinking too much coffee can increase the risk of staining and discoloration.
