Stop Kissing Your Baby, Its Dangerous! by thinkmoney(m): 3:20pm On Mar 23, 2017
Children’s primary (baby) teeth have thinner and often less resilient enamel that does not provide as much protection from the bacteria that, in conjunction with sugar, causes tooth decay.

Sharing feeding spoons with your baby should be avoided for as long as possible! Research shows that bacteria can be transmitted from parents to the baby through saliva by sharing eating utensils, dummies or even kissing on the lips. Infants’ first teeth begin to erupt at around six months of age. As babies often fall asleep with milk, formula or food in their mouths, this leaves their teeth more susceptible to dental decay. But decay only occurs if tooth tissue, carbohydrates or sugar and cariogenic bacteria – the bacteria that causes tooth decay – are together in the mouth. So the longer we can keep infants from being inoculated with harmful cariogenic bacteria, the better.

Decay in the primary teeth can cause abscesses that harm the permanent teeth developing inside the gums. In the case of advanced tooth decay where dental extraction is required, children are more likely to develop orthodontic problems as the premature loss of primary teeth can affect the alignment of permanent teeth.

#THIS FOR YOU...: Fizzy drinks are acidic in nature and studies show them to be the biggest factor in causing dental erosion among teenagers. Erosion, caused by acidic substances, is a wearing away of the enamel coating of teeth. While drinking 'diet' versions of fizzy drinks reduces sugar consumption, these are very acidic and can still cause erosion. Enamel in teeth can start to dissolve when the pH of any liquids consumed is 5.5 or lower. Fizzy water can have a pH as low as 3.0, while flavoured fizzy drinks can have pHs of as low as 2.0, though this is about the same pH as gastric acid! -www.blaksun3000..com

Knowledge is power. Since you now know it can affects the babies teeth, that same love that compels you to kiss should make you start having a rethink

That feeling you have when you think you have enormous knowledge because you've read one shitty book like that and then every norm starts becoming abnormal in your sight.
