It Turns Out Seltzer Slowly Rots Your Teeth Just Like Soda
delish.com
Pretty much everyone I know drinks seltzer. I pour a glass after lunch, as an afternoon-pick-me-up. My coworker Lindsey weaned herself off a Coke addiction by switching to fruity San Pellegrino sparkling water. Another friend drinks soda water religiously at both casual bar nights and fancy dinners, regarding it as a chic upgrade from the still stuff. But apparently all us seltzer lovers aren't doing our teeth any favors. Yep, it turns out seltzer can be just as harmful as soda when it comes to wearing away tooth enamel.
Soda water's beloved bubbles contain carbonic acid, and it can gradually deteriorate your teeth. For comparison, flat water contains a pH level of 7, which is completely neutral. A bottle of unflavored Perrier clocks in about 5.5, which is pretty acidic, the Atlantic reports. But it's the fruity flavors—especially citrus—that be even more harmful to your pearly whites, as they contain even more tooth-rotting acid.
