Mostly sweet and sticky food provides favourable environment for tooth decay. Carbonated drinks also leads to cavity formation. But it doesn't mean that you can't have these things. You just have to take some precautions. After having such food or drinks- you can rinse your mouth immediately. Brush twice daily to prevent cavity formation.
