The Power of Sour on Your Teeth®

Sour candies have become an increasingly popular treat, especially among children, teens and young adults. However, what might appear to be a harmless treat can have a devastating effect on teeth.

The high acidity of these fruity/sour candies can weaken and wear away tooth enamel, which is essential to healthy teeth. In some cases, the damage can be very severe and lead to permanent tooth loss.
