What Problems Does Wine Cause to Your Oral Health?

We have heard for years how beneficial to your health it is for you to consume wine.  There are even studies to prove that.

Red wine may help prevent heart disease.

 

 For instance, the Mayo Clinic says The alcohol and certain substances in red wine called antioxidants may help prevent heart disease by increasing levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (the "good" cholesterol) and protecting against artery damage.

The Yale-New Haven Hospital adds that men will benefit from consuming one to two servings per day. Women should consume only one serving per day to reap the maximum benefits.

So, red wine is good for your heart, but has anyone ever asked a dentist or a dental school how they think wine affects your oral health.

Dental erosion is caused by wine

 

The occurrence of tooth surface loss amongst winemakers was highly likely due to frequent exposure of their teeth to wine found the Department of Community Health, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Stellenbosch in South Africa in a study of thirty-six people, twenty-one of them being winemakers and fifteen of them being their spouses.

According to School of Dentistry and Oral Health, Griffith University in Australia, the study they did among professional wine tasters indicates that the degree of dental erosion seen amongst professional wine tasters depends directly on the length of exposure rather than on the actual sips per day.
