Springfield MO Americans consume huge quantities of soft drinks each year, warns Springfield MO dental implants provider Dr. Kelly Barnett. Spoon out ten teaspoons of sugar and see how much sugar is in a 12-ounce can of soda. Now spoon out 17 teaspoons and see how much is in a 20-ounce bottle.
But sugar isnt the only problem with soft drinks; carbonation is also very hard on your teeth. Frequent exposure to soda causes measurable loss of tooth enamel, observes Dr. Marc Barnett, a Springfield MO dentistry provider. According to a recent study by the Academy of General Dentistry, colas are ten times more corrosive to tooth enamel than fruit juices. The culprits in soft drinks are the citric and phosphoric acids that create carbonation.
However, our Springfield MO cosmetic dentists have ways to combat sodas insidious effects. We offer our patients a special fluoride varnish. The 1.5% sodium fluoride varnish is applied to teeth after each cleaning and, over time, provides a higher concentration of fluoride than any other method. It actually strengthens tooth enamel and clinical studies have shown it to reduce tooth decay by 40%.
This varnish is a great product, says Dr. Tracy Davis, a Springfield MO tooth whitening provider. Its simple to apply and can really help reduce the incidence of decay. It works well with adults who have root sensitivity or high rates of cavities. Its especially helpful for older adults who have problems with dry mouth which can encourage root decay.
The Barnett-Davis Dental Group provides a multitude of dental treatments for patients of all ages. General dental services include preventive cleanings, root canals, laser-assisted gum therapy and cavity removal, tooth colored fillings, mini-implant supported dentures, crowns and bridges. They also provide cosmetic treatments such as porcelain veneers, bondings, Invisalign orthodontic clear braces, tooth whitening and cosmetic tooth and gum contouring. Emergency cases are always seen promptly.
