It\u2019s almost October, which means pumpkin spice\nseason is in full swing! You\u2019re preparing by buying a new comfortable throw for\nyour couch and staying warm with hot drinks like coffee and tea. How else would\nyou be able to get rid of that chill that sticks with you throughout the day?\nThe last thing you\u2019re wondering is whether hot drinks are bad for your teeth or\nnot. To keep your pearly whites happy and healthy for family photos in November\nand December, implement these four tips to help reduce your risk of developing\ncavities and tooth discoloration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Avoid the Sugary Additions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are two types of people in this world, those who drink\ntheir coffee black, and those who enjoy a healthy amount of delicious flavoring\nin their hot drinks. Syrups, creamers, and other flavorings are often\nincredibly high in sugar, which you probably know is one of the main causes of\ncavities. It\u2019s best to cut these additions from your fall drinks, but if you\ncan\u2019t live without them, be sure to brush regularly and keep hydrated with\nwater throughout the day. This will help prevent sugar from settling on your\nmolars, causing dental decay. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Substitute Green and Herbal Teas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Black tea is a great fall drink that\u2019s robust and warm. Even\nthough it\u2019s the perfect beverage to get you in the mood for the holidays, it\u2019s incredibly\nrich in tannins. These are a compound found in goods like red wine and dark\nchocolate that give them their deep color. Unfortunately, consuming too many\nfoods that have a lot of this compound can cause your pearly whites to become\ndiscolored. If you\u2019d like to keep your teeth stain-free in time for family\npictures, try substituting green and herbal teas. Not only are they less rich\nin tannins, but they also have anti-inflammatory properties and are high in\nantioxidants!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avoid Hot Chocolate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, there\u2019s really no way to get around the fact\nthat hot chocolate is packed full of sugar. Drinking too much of it to keep you\nwarm can cause decay that can destroy your pearly whites. If you\u2019re not willing\nto give hot chocolate up, be sure to brush your teeth regularly and stay hydrated,\njust like you would if you regularly consume coffee with sugary additions to it.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visit Your Dentist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The best way to keep your mouth looking and feeling great\nthrough fall is to schedule a routine checkup\nand cleaning<\/a> with your dentist. They can inspect the health of your gums\nand teeth and treat any small issues before they have a chance to progress. Plus,\nif you were interested in brightening your smile for your holiday photos, you\ncould ask them about cosmetic treatment options like teeth whitening! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
