blog inner thumb : The Edge dental

Recent studies have shown that enamel strength is an inherited trait and women have stronger enamel than men. But how does environment – dietary habits – affect men’s and women’s enamel?

– This means men’s teeth will be more at risk from erosion by acidic foods and drinks.
