1. COFFEE AND ORAL
HEALTH

2. Do you have a coffee
stain on any of your
shirt?? You were not
able to clean it
completely, right?
Imagine how much
effect its daily
consumption would
have on our oral
health.

3. COFFEE STAINS
• One of the main ingredients of coffee, tannin,
is a type of polyphenol, that breaks down in
water.
• It sticks on the teeth, as the tooth surface is
never smooth and contains microscopic ridges
and pits, imparting an unwanted yellow hue
to the teeth.

5. Other food and drinks that stain
teeth
• Red wine
• Berries (blueberries, blackberries, cherries)
• Tomato and tomato sauces
• Colas
• Black tea
• Popsicles
• Hard candy
• Sports drinks

6. TOOTH EROSION
• Coffee has a tendency to produce acid that
may erode the uppermost layer of tooth, i.e.
enamel, which is responsible for imparting
color to the tooth and protect the tooth.
• Drinking a large amount of coffee on a
regular basis can break down your enamel,
causing sensitivity problems.

9. BAD BREATH / HALITOSIS
• A lot of Coffee
beverage
consumption not only
sticks to the teeth, but
also the gums, tongue
leading to more
than just “coffee
breath”.

10. Coffee Can Dry Out Your Mouth
• It might sound counterintuitive because
coffee is a drink, after all, but it could have
drying effects on your mouth by inhibiting
saliva production.
• Without enough saliva, it becomes harder for
your body to keep your mouth clean and
balanced naturally.

11. PROMOTING BACTERIAL
GROWTH
• Coffee tends to decrease salivary flow in the
oral cavity that may permit more growth of
micro-organism causing degradation and the
decaying of the enamel in the teeth.

12. DENTAL CARIES
• Increased coffee intake increases the
consumption of sugar too which can also lead
to tooth decay.
• Bacteria in the oral cavity react with sugar to
form acid, which degrades enamel.
• The more sugar you consume, the stronger
and more frequent these acid attacks
become.

13. Excess Sugar
• Syrups, sugar and even
cream produce bacteria
that create acid.
• This creates a double
acidity tooth decay threat,
considering the existing
high acidity content in
coffee

14. SUGAR AMOUNT IN YOUR DAILY
COFFEE
• Latte – 1.2 tablespoons
• Mocha – 2.5 tablespoons
• Cappuccino – 0.7 tablespoons
• Caramel Macchiato – 2.3 tablespoons
• Cinnamon Dolce Latte – 2.8 tablespoons
• Flavoured Lattes – between 2.3 and 2.5
tablespoons

15. PREVENTION IS
BETTER THAN CURE

16. • Make sure you brush at least twice a day
for two minutes.
• Use ADA approved tooth whitening
toothpastes regularly.

17. •Use and electric toothbrush, which
provides more cleaning power.

18. • Drinking lots of water
so as to rinse any
deposition on tooth
surface.
• Eating vegetables like
carrots and celery
after a cup of coffee
will help in reducing
tooth discoloration
and freshening up the
breath.

19. Clean your tongue properly with a
tongue scraper along with mouthwash.

20. • If you prefer iced coffee, drink it through a
straw to reduce the risk of stains. Lastly,
brush your teeth about 30 minutes after
drinking coffee, and only after rinsing your
mouth with water.
• Remember, coffee is acidic. Brushing your
teeth immediately after eating or drinking
anything acidic weakens tooth enamel and
causes staining.

21. Cut Down on the Coffee Quantity
• Try to group your cups of coffee into one time slot,
rather than having it on-hand throughout the day.
• You reduce the acid getting on your teeth and make it
easier for you to have a single toothbrushing break to
take care of the issue afterward.

22. Stick to Your Dental Cleaning
Schedule
You're supposed to go for a
professional cleaning every
6 months.
You need to keep to that
schedule so you can refresh
your teeth and fight back
against the staining that
may accumulate due to
coffee drinking.

23. • In between visits, look for toothpaste that has
whitening compounds so you can cut down on the
staining that builds up.
• You also need to adopt a rigorous oral hygiene
routine that has you brushing after meals, in the
morning and at night.

24. You need to talk to your dentist about getting oral
prophylaxis and tooth whitening procedures.
