Does drinking from a straw prevent cavaties?!
Question: Does drinking from a straw prevent cavaties!?
I know a person who always drinks from a straw, whether it'd be water or soda pop, or juice!. Just as a habit and prefers it that way!. Never has had a cavity in her life, and she drinks a lot of soda pop!. And, I know this for a fact she's never had a cavity!. But me on the other hand and plenty of other people I know have had a lot of cavaties from the down fall of drinking soda pop!. So, is it true!? I mean if you think about it when you drink from a straw, and it's in your mouth far enough, it doesn't hit your teeth, just goes down your throat!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
