I haven't heard of anyone's teeth being corroded by the acidic eliquids. I suppose it would have the same or slightly less effect on teeth as oranges and lemons. I'm not a chemist or biologist so I don't have an opinion one way or the other. If your teeth are fine and you're vaping acidic ejuices, then I suppose your question is hypothetical. My suggestion is to ask your dentist for an informed answer.

You're teeth will dissolve.



Really, You aren't putting the juice on your teeth, nor letting it set there. If you're following the major advice bit, you're drinking lots of water and hence rinsing your teeth constantly of anything that the vapor might contain that is acidic or otherwise, and your saliva is probably flowing from the flavor anyway, also rinsing anything from the vapor. it's also assumed you follow general dental hygiene...

I've had major teeth issues. At one time, I was brushing 6 times a day and one of my dental techs said that the constant brushing was wearing my enamel off.. This was overheard by a Dental specialist (and owner of the clinic) who grabbed the tech a minute later brought her back into the exam room and gave me an quick education on how enamel couldn't be worn away by brushing unless I was using a metal brush verses a nylon brush and that Not brushing was about the only way all these "drinks and such" were going to affect my teeth.

So, Relax!

I guess the real question is what are the long term effects...since neither one of us has vaped for 7-10 years it would be anyone's guess. I wonder if there is a way to test the vapor itself for acidic content and see if there is high pH level or not. I want to get the facts so we all have the knowledge and stay safe.

Well, no one knows, as you've said yourself vaping hasn't been around long enough. And to be certain, you'd have to first find a scientific lab to conduct the effects of acidic ejuice vaping on teeth and that is going to cost lots of money. If you're worried, just stop vaping acidic flavors.

Harsh lol. Maybe I can ask Walter White and Jesse to test it out since they have a nice lab haha.

On a serious note, I do believe Walgreens sells a simple pH level test stick really cheap, it may not be perfect but will give me an idea. I'm gonna go PBusardo on this.

Great, go for it Gorky! Make sure you let us know of the results.
