Carbonated beverages damage teeth

[Johnka]

Unfortunately, even diet sodas damage our teeth, according to this study.

Carbonated beverages damage enamel more than coffee, tea, and even root beer. In particular, light-colored sodas do the most damage: Mountain Dew, 7-Up, Sprite.

I knew there was a good reason not to allow myself to become addicted to diet vanilla coke (mmm).

mmmmm, diet vanilla coke sounds so good, thank god the closest place we can get it is Greece, so that's one good thing. It's sometimes cool living in a culture where MD just came two months ago and we have been hawling tons of Diet Doctor Pepper every Easter and Xmas from the US.
That definitely lowers your soda consumption.
Funny, my husband never had one cavity before he moved here 4 years ago (he used to live on a 6 pack of MD a day all his adult life in the US), he got 8 in just one year (no calcium or fluoride is added to anything here). So even leaving MD behind didn't help that. Sigh.
