Key takeaways:

  • The odd glassful of Prosecco, a sparkly wine, has been blamed for enamel erosion on the teeth.
  • Prosecco is a popular drink among women, but has caused great damage to their teeth even without their knowledge.
  • The wine damages teeth through sugar that feeds bacteria in the mouth and through high amounts of carbon dioxide that is highly acidic. Acid causes enamel erosion and weakening of teeth.
