What are the benefits of drinking coffee besides health?

Many people worry that drinking coffee is bad for their teeth. In fact, research has shown that coffee has a certain effect on preventing tooth decay.

The ingredients contained in coffee can effectively prevent tooth decay. If you rinse your mouth after drinking coffee, you can further prevent tooth decay.

Why can coffee prevent tooth decay?

Coffee contains many ingredients, the most famous of which is caffeine, but it also contains polyphenols. These polyphenols have many excellent benefits, such as antibacterial, antiviral, and antioxidant effects. Tooth decay is caused by the growth of bacterial colonies on teeth, and we can reduce the occurrence of tooth decay through the antibacterial effect of caffeine's polyphenols.

Black coffee can effectively prevent tooth decay

A research team at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil announced through experiments that they cultivated a film called "bacterial biofilm" based on the way tooth decay is generated and adhered to the surface of the teeth. Then they immersed it in coffee liquid. Then the bacterial biofilm began to decompose. In other words, we can eliminate tooth decay by immersing the substances that cause tooth decay in coffee liquid.

In addition to the Brazilian research team, the American Periodontal Association investigated the relationship between coffee and periodontal disease and confirmed that coffee has a role in preventing periodontal disease. In the report, they even pointed out that coffee can prevent tooth necrosis.

Coffee has a good effect on teeth, but on the other hand, it can also have adverse effects on teeth. Coffee is a beverage with a strong color. If you drink a lot of coffee, your teeth will turn yellow and the enamel may be corroded by caffeic acid, so it is best to rinse your mouth after drinking coffee.

Coffee can effectively prevent tooth decay, but this is limited to black coffee. If you put sugar in coffee, it may be counterproductive because sugar can cause bacteria to grow on the teeth. So, if you are afraid that drinking coffee will affect your teeth, then drink black coffee. However, remember to rinse your mouth.
