MYTH BUSTED! APPLE as a natural TOOTH BRUSH?

Not any more! In the past a lot of people thought that natural acids contained in the apple can naturally clean or even whiten your teeth. The truth is that the apple -rests that stay in between your teeth can have the same detrimental effect on your teeth as chocolate.

Chemically, the bacteria in your mouth transform the fruit sugar into organic acids and the pH quickly turns from neutral to acidic. As a result of the acidic pH the enamel demineralises and erodes.
