Expert has bad news for anyone who drinks prosecco or Guinness

A dental expert has issued a warning to prosecco drinkers and revealed the havoc it could be playing on your teeth.

Prosecco creates a perfect tooth eroding combination due to its sweetness, high acidic content and carbonation. The sparkling drink is also around 200 times more acidic than what is required to break down tooth enamel.

A dental hygienist from Bandon Dental told the ECHO: "Over time prosecco drinkers may start to see a white line form under the gum, which if poked will feel soft. This is tooth decay which can lead to fillings and other issues."
