Beware….”No Added sugar” means there is still sugar!
We wanted to bring up this topic as we are asked the following question regularly;
“Am I okay to drink sugar-free cordial/ drinks?”
Drinks that claim “zero sugar” means there is either zero sugar or artificial sweeteners which do not cause decay.
Drinks that claim no added sugar do in fact still already contain natural sugar but none has been added & regular consumption of these drinks would still increase your risk of developing decay.
The overall message is to reduce frequency of sugary intakes (via food or drink) throughout the day.
Even healthy food and drinks can be sugary and harmful like fruits, and cereal bars as they contain natural sugars like fructose leads to a higher risk of decay.
We have included an attachment showing you various names for sugar

I have always found the Oakthorpe Dental Practice very good throughout the 25 years I have been a patient, and whoever has been the practising dentists.
I do find the ambience and environment at a higher level than 25 years ago as is the equipment, which of course is more modern than in the previous century. The quality of service is as good as I would want, but I have no experience elsewhere for reasons previously stated.
I find the staff/practitioners very pleasant and welcoming whether it be reception through to dentists/hygienists, but once again I always see the same dentist and hygienist.
I would not hesitate to recommend this practice to any friends or family if they lived in the area or indeed if they needed emergency treatment
