The best way to prevent dental erosion is to keep your mouth clean. This includes brushing twice every day and flossing once a day as well. If possible, you should brush 30 minutes after every meal. Saliva production is essential for limiting dental erosion for having a healthy mouth. Crunchy fruits and vegetables, which also have a high water content are great at stimulating saliva production. Studies have shown that by chewing sugarless gum after meals, you can help produce additional saliva in your mouth.
