30 Seconds of Contact – That’s All It Takes
We have all been told to wait 30 minutes after drinking acidic beverages to brush our teeth. New research proves that regardless of whether or not you brush your teeth, the damage is already done.

Acidic beverages mentioned in the study were sodas, sports drinks and fruit juices.
