Everyone knows that some sort of drug methamphetamine or cocaine is bad for the body. Illegal drugs can also make the skin wrinkles and tooth loss. For dental problems, it turns out the evil effects of drug equivalent to drinking soda every day.
Both methamphetamine, cocaine, and soda, all of which are acidic and can cause tooth decay. Thus the conclusion of a report written by Dr. Mohamed Bassiouny, professor of restorative dentistry at Temple University School of Dentistry and published in the journal General Dentistry.
"The acid in the soda is in the form of citric acid and phosphoric acid. Without good dental hygiene, constant exposure can cause erosion and damage," said Bassiouny as reported by the New York Daily News, Monday (27/05/2013).
In his research, Bassiouny comparing a woman aged 30 years who drank 2 liters of diet soda every day for 3-5 years, a 29-year-old methamphetamine addict and crack cocaine users aged 51 years. As a result, the three men have a similar tooth decay.
Wearer was 3 years old methamphetamine addict, cocaine users while men are 18 years old abusing illicit drugs. Women who drank diet soda can claim to drink 2-3 cans of soda per day due to medication he was taking to make your mouth feel dry.
The woman chose diet soda because of her weight soared to worry if drinking regular soda. He also admitted that he had not for years went to the dentist. In addition, the unnamed woman is also fond of eating sweets.
"His teeth turned into soft and discolored, many destroyed by erosion. Women are usually sipped straight from the can or bottle. He also hold soda in the mouth before swallowing," said Bassiouny.
When drinking soda, he used to lean back on the couch, resting on the left arm while watching television. This is what makes the biggest damage suffered by the left side of the mouth. None of the affected tooth erosion can be saved. The whole teeth should be removed and replaced with dentures.
On methamphetamine and cocaine users, all her teeth also need to be removed. In addition to damaging the teeth are exposed to acid, an illegal drug that reduces the amount of saliva in the mouth, so that the acid in the mouth so it is more difficult to clean. This drug causes systemic damage called 'meth mouth'.
Therefore, Bassiouny advised to pay attention to the frequency of drinking fizzy drinks and how how long it was in the mouth. For the problem of tooth decay, Bassiouny stated that without sugar soda is no better than regular soda.
"Both have the same drastic effect if consumed in the same frequency, the same number and the same duration," he concluded.
