What to expect

This event combines a lecture with a wine tour and a variety of local wines to sample. The talk will explore how different wines impact our teeth, from enamel erosion to staining. We'll examine the role of acidity, tannins, and sugar, comparing red, white, and sparkling wines. Practical strategies to minimise damage, including food pairings, oral hygiene tips, and myth-busting, will be discussed. Attendees will leave with a balanced approach to enjoying wine while protecting their smiles.
