Funny you mentioned that, i went last week to my dentist, he was doing a survey and asked me if i drank red wine or coffee, i don't drink wine but i do coffee, apparently it can cause cavities, but i was not there long enough to ask why.
Coffee will not, but if you take sugar, the sugar will.
Caffeine will stain your teeth.
It could, but drink it with out cream and sugar of course it will be better
Caffeine is a diuretic i.e. makes you pee more. If you dehydrate from too much caffeine or other causes e.g medicines, then your saliva will dry up. Saliva has a protective role in washing away bacteria and hardening teeth.
