What does acid in our mouths do to our teeth and how do we neutralize it?
Acid in our mouths can erode tooth enamel, leading to tooth decay and cavity formation. To neutralize this acid, you can rinse your mouth with water or chew sugar-free gum to stimulate saliva production, which helps neutralize acid and remineralize teeth. Consuming dairy products like milk or cheese can also help neutralize acid in the mouth.
How can you neutralize the acid in your mouth?
By eating/drinking things that have a pH base of 7 or more (alkali, NOT acid). Try drinking milk or downing some water. If all else fails? I find Zantac 150 (an H2 blocker that stops the production of acid) works quite well at relieving heartburn.
Can water effectively neutralize acid?
Yes, water can effectively neutralize acid by diluting it and reducing its concentration.
