British study claims that apples hurt teeth more than carbonated drinks

Wine and lager also increase the risk of tooth damage, but pickled onions and grapefruit that are usually eaten less often do not damage the teeth.

David Bartlett, the head of the study and a professor at the Institute of Dentistry at King's College London, said: "This involves not only what we eat but also how to eat it."

The doctor said that eating apples is good for health. That's right, but if you eat apples slowly, the acid in apples can damage your teeth. Drinks are usually the most talked about damage to teeth, especially Coke, but studies have shown that their damage to the teeth is not as big as imagined.

The results of this study emphasize that dental care recommendations should address foods that are high in acidity rather than the beverages that people often drink.

Some apples contain up to 4 tablespoons of sugar, which increases the level of acid in the mouth.

Grinniss Jones, a nutritionist at the British Medical Research Council Human Nutrition Institute, said: “The acidity of fruits is often high and they are obviously sugary, but I don’t want everyone to be reluctant to eat fruit or juice.”

One suggestion is to match apples with milk or a small piece of cheese, because both milk and cheese contain calcium, which neutralizes the acid in the fruit. Drinking water immediately after eating an apple also has the effect of protecting the teeth, because it can wash off the material that damages the teeth.

Jones also said: “Sucking juices and other beverages with straws is also a way to protect your teeth. Brushing teeth before eating acidic foods also has a mouth guard effect, because it creates a barrier between the food and the teeth.”
