HOW ACIDIC IS YOUR MOUTH? AND FOR HOW LONG IS THE TRUE QUESTION?
It takes your saliva 30-40 minutes to buffer the acidity to get your mouth back to neutral! If you have dry mouth, it takes a lot longer. So whether you are eating acidic foods or carbohydrates/sugars that bacteria feed on to produce an acid, you must know when to neutralize vs feed it! So sipping on drinks other than water may have your teeth bathing in ACID!! Your teeth will breakdown in minutes! WATER IS THE KEY!
Many of us love to sip on tea, coffee, fountain drinks or snack throughout the day or night! Forming good habits is hard. Try to drink the sugary or acidic drinks with your meals, rinsing with water afterwards and drinking water the rest of the time to help!

🦠Did you know cavities can be contagious?🦷

Cavities aren’t just about sugar. They’re caused by bacteria. And yes — those bacteria can actually spread from one person to another.

Everyday habits like kissing, sharing spoons, straws, or even putting a baby’s pacifier in the mouth can pass cavity-causing bacteria. The main culprit is Streptococcus mutans, which stick to teeth and produces acids that damage enamel.

Saliva is full of bacteria — some good, some harmful. When two people share saliva, the cavity-causing bacteria hitch a ride in those tiny droplets. Once they reach a new mouth, they attach to the tooth surface, especially where plaque already exists. If sugars are present, these bacteria quickly start producing acid, which weakens enamel and leads to cavities over time.

👶 Babies and young children are most vulnerable. Their teeth are still developing, and once these bacteria settle in, the risk of early cavities skyrockets. That’s why parents with untreated tooth decay often see their kids struggle with cavities too.

😬 Adults can spread it as well, but strong habits like daily brushing, flossing, less sugar, and regular dental visits make a big difference. The bacteria may transfer — but they don’t stand a chance if your mouth is protected.

Happy birthday, Mary! We hope you have a fantastic day and weekend!

ATTENTION:
It’s not just a dental cleaning appointment!! You get so much more! We will go over your medical history, medications/supplements, your eating/drinking habits and even take your blood pressure! Why? Your dental health is a gate way to your overall health! Your medications can have a toll on your gums and even cause dry mouth. In some cases, you may actually be allergic to your medications and your mouth tells the story! Some of you are taking more blood pressure medication then needed and some are not taking enough. Are you a heart attack waiting to happen? Neglect can kill you!
We will do an oral cancer screening! How many of you have red or white spots or even lumps or bumps in your mouth that should not be there? Well, we have found a few that have sent our patients to MD Anderson! Some patients were in their 20s and others in their 60s. Do your gums bleed when you brush or do you see puss in your mouth? The bacteria you are swallowing is going into your body and when brushing or eating it gets pushed into your bloodstream where the blood is circulating throughout your heart and body! We will look at the big picture not just your teeth! When is the last time you had a thorough dental exam? 🦷❤️
