Your dentist is wrong.


Dentist here. Her dentist is right.

Regular carbonated water has only a slight pH change from regular water - not enough to affect your teeth. It's the citric acid that is in the "natural flavors" of the LaCroix that bring the pH way down to to danger zone (for tooth destruction, at least).

Hope that clears things up.


In other words: LaCroix is destroying your teeth.


Dentist again.

Yes, absolutely it is. But PP's dentist said seltzer (what I took to mean as plain seltzer) doesn't do anything to your teeth and s/he was correct.

But if you are substituting LaCroix for Diet Coke or some other kind of flavored seltzer, or coffee, or lemon water...aren't they all destroying your teeth anyway? Isn't anything other than plain water destroying your teeth if you are just swigging away at it while you go about your day?

How many of you "Lacroix destroys your teeth" posters drink coffee everyday and several bottles of wine a week?

I see your point, but it's not an equal substitution. LaCroix addicts are tipping back 3-6 cans a day because it's zero cal and they think it's water (secretly women like that it makes them feel full, so they avoid eating).

I'm a coffee drinker, but only 1 cup at 8am. I don't know any LaCroix addicts who only have 1 can per day. And I don't know any LaCroix addicts who quit drinking coffee.

You are correct, I was referring to plain seltzer.

You are really fixated on what other women weigh and telling yourself stories about how they must be "cheating" to be so thin and how they must be suffering bad effects like tooth erosion. You sound like the one with the eating disorder honestly.

Well that's you. I had a cup of coffee at 5am, a cup of coffee at 8am, and am drinking one now. I can't believe that in your mind, someone drinking LaCroix is doing worse for their teeth than I am.

Also, I prefer phentermine as it makes me feel full to avoid eating. Thank god its not LaCroix though, huh?

I'm still laughing at the illiteracy of "peak basic." What were we discussing again?

That's fine. But don't touch my Perrier. I literally could not live without Perrier. Like, literally... I would die.

Some of us aren't addicts, just recreational users.

You seem really, really hung up on La Croix though, really. Have you explored whynthis bothers you so much? A beverage related insecurity is a terrible burden to carry.

Interesting. What is it that out like about that flavor so much? I'm partial to Apricot and Coconut La Croix, as well as Perrier in a glass bottle.
