However, Dr. Martin warns that sauces that are dark, sticky and hot, stick to and stain teeth. Dr. Martin recommends rinsing after eating anything with BBQ sauce if you can&#8217;t brush.<\/p>\n<p>2. <strong>Corn on the cob.<\/strong> Corn is healthy right? Corn can get stuck in teeth, and this can force teeth to separate. To keep this from happening, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilesbymartin.com\/meet-dr-martin.html\">Dr. Martin<\/a> suggests that you floss the corn out from between your teeth as soon as you can.<\/p>\n<p>3. <strong>Citrusy drinks.<\/strong> These drinks have a lot of acid in them that wear away enamel if left to sit. Teeth can also change color and even shape if the acid is left to cause erosion. Moreover, these drinks dry out the mouth. This is a problem because it prevents saliva from doing its job. Brushing or rinsing can remove most of the acid and stimulate saliva.<\/p>\n<p>4. <strong>Popsicles and slushies.<\/strong> When it is hot people reach for popsicles and slushies as an icy cold treat. Dr. Martin notes however that any food\/drink that stains your tongue will also stain your teeth. Always brush after eating a popsicle and\/or drinking a slushy.<\/p>\n<p>5. <strong>S&#8217;mores.<\/strong> For those planning on having a campfire during a Memorial Day party and cooking up some S&#8217;mores, Dr. Martin explains that S&#8217;mores are sticky and contain sugar which provides a double threat to your teeth. Brush your teeth as soon as you can after eating s\u2019mores.<\/p>\n<p>If you or someone you know\u00a0is\u00a0interested in brightening their smile\u00a0Dr. Martin offers TWO <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilesbymartin.com\/cosmetic-dentistry.html\">teeth whitening<\/a> systems!
