tea

is tea bad for your teeth?

 

---

 

dark teas can stain your teeth, like coffee does. brushing them afterwards should help with it, though.

 

I think I once read that green tea is good for your teath, just stains them. It might be a bit acidic but I'm not sure. If I can find my pH paper I'll test some and post the results, not sure where it is though so I may never find it.

 

green tea has flouride in it, so it is actually good for your teeth, not sure about some other ones

 

its the tanin in tea which stains your teeth, but i've heard lemon juice or bicarb of soda are good for getting teeth white again, not sure if they work tho so don't take my word for it!

 

I brush my teeth with bi-carb.I have to dip the brush in water first.
