Do not drink water after consuming acidic foods or drinks
Under the blazing sun on a hot summer day, you’ll want to enjoy a cool drink or an ice cream. However, if your teeth are sensitive to extreme heat, drinking cold beverages can be harmful to your teeth.

Dr. Jaradi advises people to drink water after eating acidic substances as they will help balance the acidity levels in the mouth.
As for summer dental care, Dr. Jaradi says, a diet rich in fiber can naturally clean teeth and aid in saliva formation. Saliva is important for reducing the impact of acids and enzymes that attack teeth.
Eating foods containing calcium and phosphates such as cheese, milk and dairy products helps to regain lost minerals.
