It can help you relish in the moment more or loosen you up when hanging out with friends or family. You might already know how certain ones, like red wine, can cause stains in your teeth. Instead, you may reach for beer, but what does this option do to your oral health? Here is what you need to know and how you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fortdentaltx.com\/checkups.html\">protect your smile<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Can Beer Do to My Teeth?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter what type of beer you get, from stouts to IPAs, they are made by brewing cereal grains. It&#8217;s fermented and then carbonated to become the beverage you may enjoy. However, this drink can be harmful to your grin in a few different ways. Here&#8217;s how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If you open the can or bottle with your teeth, then it can cause chips or cracks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The sugar content can increase your risk of oral health issues, such as cavities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Carbonation makes this alcohol acidic, which wears down your enamel the more you have it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You may develop dry mouth, which reduces how much saliva you produce to wash away harmful bacteria.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>While not a dental problem, you can still end up with some stains. Watch out for darker beers or ones with fruit additives, like blackberries, raspberries, and cherries.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Beer Have Any Benefits?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, beer does have some upsides to it! Many craft brews are made from barley or hops. These are high in calcium, which can help keep your teeth strong. Lighter ales, IPAs, and other options that are made with fresh ingredients while being minimally processed can be a bit more beneficial for you. Not only that, but the yeast and good bacteria in this beverage can kill off bad germs in your mouth, reducing your risk of gum disease and decay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can I Enjoy Beer Safely?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While beer can do both good and bad, you should do your part in enjoying it responsibly. These tips are easy to follow and can help protect your smile from any harm:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Take sips of water between drinking beer. It can help keep your mouth hydrated while washing away any particles that try to linger.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Brush your teeth 30 minutes after having this beverage. Acidic items soften your enamel slightly, so scrubbing right after can cause trouble so wait a short while before cleaning your smile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Visit your dentist semi-annually! Through cleanings and checkups, they can help keep your teeth protected and strong. That way, your grin stays safe while you indulge in this drink.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Fort Dental, you benefit from a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fortdentaltx.com\/meet-the-doctors.html\">team of skilled dentists<\/a> who look after you and your oral health.
