Drinking coffee can actually improve your oral health and help to clean your teeth! The polyphenols in coffee are what breaks down the bacteria in biofilm – preventing the formation of plaque.
The main caveat is the coffee needs to be black. Any addition of cream or sugar can cause the formation of acid, and acid is responsible for eroding the tooth’s surface.
