Drinking Tea Make My Teeth Feel Fuzzy

by Carol
(Tucson, AZ)

I love hot tea. But I can't seem to find a tea that does not make my teeth feel coated or fuzzy. Has anyone else had the problem and did you solve the issue and how or with which teas. Please help. I'm missing my nightly cuppa.

Tea staining teeth!
by: Julian

Carol, unfortunately tea, like coffee, wine and fruit juice, does stain our teeth. It is much better than sugary drinks, and it stimulates saliva production that does great for foul mouth, but it you drink tea and not brush your teeth regularly, it will leave stain behind.

Spinach isn't the only food with high levels of oxalic acid. Beets, rhubarb, strawberries, nuts, chocolate, tea, wheat bran and all dry beans, with the exception of lima and green beans, "are known to increase oxalate in the urine and may contribute to kidney stone formation," Correll and his colleagues wrote in a July 2016 study on plant breeding published in the journal Euphytica.

NOT stained teeth, weird feeling! NEW

Not stained, weird, the same type of sensation which occurs after eating spinach, rhubarb and a couple of other foods. I don't particularly like tea anyway but that weird teeth sensation makes it especially unpleasant.
