Energy drink destroys teeth too!

A 20-year-old in Taiwan faced a dire health scare, developing over 300 kidney stones after favoring bubble tea, juice, and soda over water, leading to her hospitalization at Chi Mei Hospital with fever and severe back pain.

Scans revealed stones ranging from pea-sized to chestnut-sized in her right kidney, necessitating a two-hour percutaneous nephrolithotomy to remove them; she is now stable.

Experts attribute the risk to sugary drinks’ dehydration effects and additives like high-fructose corn syrup, phosphoric acid, caffeine, and sodium, which promote crystal formation.

A study highlights a 23% higher kidney stone risk for daily soda drinkers, dropping by 15% for those who stop, underscoring the value of choosing water to protect kidney health.

Teeth grinding, also called bruxism, is when a person clenches or grinds their teeth, often without realizing it—especially during sleep. Over time, this repeated grinding puts excessive pressure on the teeth.

As a result, the outer layer of the teeth (enamel) begins to wear down. When enamel is lost, the underlying layer (dentin) gets exposed, which can cause tooth sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods. In more severe cases, if the grinding continues, the damage can reach the inner pulp of the tooth—leading to pain, inflammation, or even the need for root canal treatment.

If you notice signs like jaw soreness, morning headaches, or worn-down teeth, it's important to consult your dentist early. Early intervention can prevent long-term damage and protect your teeth.

Brush and floss your children teeth.
See the dentist every 6 months for check up and cleaning.

Premature loss of primary (baby) teeth is a serious dental concern that can significantly affect the proper development of a child’s permanent dentition. Baby teeth are not only essential for chewing, speaking, and aesthetics, but they also serve as natural space maintainers for the permanent teeth developing underneath them.

When a baby tooth is lost earlier than its expected exfoliation time—due to decay, trauma, or extraction—the adjacent teeth tend to drift or tilt into the empty space. This disrupts the alignment and spacing needed for the permanent tooth to erupt in its correct position. As a result, the permanent tooth may become impacted, erupt out of alignment, or be forced into an abnormal position, leading to:

🦷Dental crowding

🦷Malocclusion (misaligned bite)

🦷Functional issues with chewing or speaking

🦷Increased risk of orthodontic problems

In many cases, space maintainers may be recommended by the pediatric dentist to preserve the space for the erupting permanent tooth. However, prevention remains the best strategy. Maintaining excellent oral hygiene, regular dental checkups, fluoride exposure, and timely treatment of caries can help prevent early tooth loss and the complications that follow.

In summary, early loss of baby teeth is not a minor issue. It can set off a cascade of developmental dental problems that may require extensive orthodontic intervention later in life. Every effort should be made to retain primary teeth until their natural exfoliation period.
