Question 5 • Physicians, Pharmacists, Dentists, Veterinarians and Other Doctors

Which of the following practices may help prevent enamel erosion?

Answer
A
flossing
B
losing baby teeth
C
whitening
D
drinking soda or acidic substances with a straw

Explanation

Drinking acidic beverages through a straw can reduce how much liquid contacts the teeth, which may help limit enamel erosion. Flossing supports gum health but does not prevent acid from wearing away enamel; losing baby teeth and whitening do not prevent erosion either. The correct choice is drinking soda or acidic substances with a straw.
