Contrary to popular belief, white wine is not a great alternative to red wine if you are looking for an option that doesn’t yellow teeth. White wine, while light in colour, is more acidic than red wine and is harmful to tooth enamel in much the same way that coffee is. When left in contact with teeth, this acid breaks down the protective outer layer of the tooth and exposes its yellowish inner layer, which can look like staining. If you do want to enjoy white wine this season, follow it with water to keep acids from sticking to teeth.
