Which fruits are bad for your teeth and may cause Decay?!


Question: My dentist tells me oranges, the Juice actively dissolves enamel. Also pineapple has an enzyme in it that breaks down meat and will eventually break down your gums so your teeth fall out. This happened to many solders (chindits) fighting in Burma during the second world war

well i don't think there are any fruits that are bad for teeth
i eat a plate of fruits every night and my teeth are great

Anything with a lot of acid.
Apples are particularly bad and orange juice is lethal. It actually lifts the enamel on your teeth.

apples.. are acidic..

but smoothies aren't so great apparently. yer ur getting the fruit, but your getting citric acid etc.. so best way it to drink them using a straw or brush your teeth after.

but everything in moderation and you'll be ok.

Oranges,especially Terrys oranges,oh and toffee apples does this help.

bananas & datils

oranges?

All food, including fruit of all kinds is bad for your teeth. The obvious solution is to clean your teeth.

Studies have shown that workers on fruit farms have more tooth decay than those on vegateble farms.

The key is enjoy in moderation and brush well after eating.

Raisins are known as nature's candy. They are sticky and full of natural sugar. I have a friend that used to suck on lemons. It dissolved her tooth enamel away. Not pretty.
