Burping is good

So here we go, i finally have a good reason for burping…

Went to drop my xrays off to the dentist to get a referral, anyway, he was there and he had a look and told me i drink coke/soft drinks cause the acids in it have started eating away the enamel on my teeth. Bad you might say.. but wait.. theres more…
He went on to say that theres a few things you can do to stop it eating away the enamel:

1) Stop drinking coke *yeah right.. next option*
2) Chew sugar free chewing gum afterwards and it will neutrilise the acids. *cool, easy*
3) Drink it through a straw *again.. yeah right, im a man not a girl :P *
4) Drink it fast so that it doesnt have time to sit on your teeth eating them away

The one to note is option 4, drink it fast and it doesnt stay on your teeth long. Now… anyone who is a seasonsed coke drinker knows that drinking it fast makes you burp, and not the little ‘burp’ type ones but the big ‘BURRRRRRPPPPPPPPP’ ones that vibrate anything in a 2 metre distance.

Thus… in conclusion.. if i am to stop the enamel from being eaten away by coke acids i have to drink it fast which may cause burping BUT thats ok cause my teeth will be nice and healty.

There Melanie! its good that i burp! :P
