6 ways to help protect your enamel
Try not to brush your teeth immediately after eating or drinking and be sure to use a soft-bristled toothbrush.
Use a straw when enjoying acidic drinks and don't swish them around or hold them in your mouth.
If you’re eating something acidic, have cheese, milk, or another non-acidic food or drink with it.
Brush for at least two minutes, twice a day. Try setting a timer or playing a song to keep track of time.
