Acid can damage the enamel of your teeth. It causes demineralization, depending on how low is the pH of the acid substance. That is why people must not lick acid foods like lemons (citric acid) or keep for seconds beverages like sodas in mouth (they contain phosphoric acid). Also cariogenic bacteria in your teeth can use sugar to produce acids and dissolve enamel, leading to decay. Strong acids can also burn gums and oral tissue.
