\"womanC-O-F-F-E-E! For some, their coffee is ready even before they get out of bed in the morning. For others, coffee represents a way to socialize with friends, meet a client or just relax after a long day. Whatever coffee means to you, there are ways to order this ubiquitous drink that will have less impact on your teeth. Read on for tips from a family dentist<\/a> in Springfield.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Shrink Your Coffee Cup<\/h2>\n

Do you really need to order a cup of coffee that\u2019s large enough for four people? Try choosing a smaller size, especially if you add sugar or sweetened whipped cream to your cup o\u2019 java. Little by little, the amount of sugar added to your daily cups of coffee can really add up to a significant amount.<\/p>\n

Black Coffee, Please<\/h2>\n

Whipped cream, sprinkles or syrups and other toppings add unnecessary sugar to a cup of coffee. For instance, a drizzle of caramel adds four grams of sugar to your beverage. It\u2019s best to drink black coffee, but if you\u2019ve just got to have yours sweetened, then at least ask for less.<\/p>\n

Less Syrup<\/h2>\n

Those specialty coffee drinks are loaded with flavored syrup, which means that they\u2019re also loaded with sugar. One pump of your favorite flavored syrup is equal to about five grams of sugar. So three pumps in a small drink adds up to 15 grams of sugar; a medium has about 20 grams; and a large has a whopping 25 grams, which is 100 percent of the recommended daily allowance of sugar for women!<\/p>\n

Do your teeth, your heart and your waistline a favor\u2014ask for less syrup or eliminate this sweetener completely the next time your order coffee.<\/p>\n

Coffee and the Color of Your Smile<\/h2>\n

The sugar in a cup of coffee can gradually lead to tooth decay, but let\u2019s not overlook what coffee can do to the whiteness of your smile. The tannins in coffee can seep into the enamel of your teeth and leave stains. Eventually, these stains will discolor your smile.<\/p>\n

You don\u2019t necessarily have to stop drinking coffee to avoid staining. Try rinsing your mouth with water after you\u2019ve finished a cup of coffee. Alternatively, if you don\u2019t mind drinking coffee at room temperature, you could use a straw so most of the liquid stays away from your teeth.<\/p>\n

Would you like to know more about how you can keep your teeth healthy and still enjoy coffee regularly? If so,\u00a0Contact\u00a0<\/a>your family dentist in Springfield.<\/p>\n
