I meant carbonated water. I dont like sweetened things. It’s also why the fruit suggestion by my doctor hasn’t been enough to get me to stick to still water
Ngl, havent looked it up because i am familiar with the chemistry of carbonic acid, but I suppose I should.
It looks like its generally considered safe but it is in fact very slightly corrosive to your teeth, but that seems to be more correlated to the presence of calcium ions than to carbonic acid. That being said, any acid can slowly dissolve your teeth so its kinda whatever.
Technically, it is corrosive. But on a scale it would be water = 0, carbonated water = 1, soda = 10.
Edit: also here is the actual study they are referencing, since you did ask for the study itself.

Why does your doctor have an issue with plain carbonated water, tho … ?

I’m struggling with urinary incontinence
Huh, TIL.
Still contains carbonic acid, i don’t drink soda bc it fucks up your teeth.
Do you have a source on that? First time I’ve heard that plain sparkling water is supposed to be bad for teeth.
