The only, ONLY person I asked who had a rational reason for their straw usage was in a bid to protect his teeth from acids in soda and juices.

That being said, I can only look back to college years, but he had GREAT teeth.

I'm closer to 40 than 30, and well, I need a lot of dental work I can't afford.

Maybe he was on to something.

My response would be to reevaluate soda and juices.

That would have a much more profound impact on your oral health. Probably your overall health too.

Genetics also play a lot when it's about dental health and longevity. Base-level dental health is negatively correlated to bone health for whatever reason, also if you have fragile nails you're more likely will experience bad teeth in your later life regardless of how much you brush, floss, etc.
