Coca-cola’s teeth-rotting myth the ‘real thing,’ says ad watchdog
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has forced the Coco-Cola company to publish “corrective ads” following a tv campaign which saw a popular Australian actress debunking ‘myths’ about the soft drink, including its reputation for being fattening, overly caffeinated and “teeth-rotting.” According to a report in the Financial Times, the Commission ruled the campaign to be “totally unacceptable,” while the drinks company, which was required to print corrections in seven national and state newspapers, claims they “certainly did not intend [the] message to be misleading.”

Marcus:
"I don't have a problem with the diet version of these drinks as these do not contain sugar, which is the main factor in tooth decay. I would advise avoiding the normal fizzy drinks that contain sugar especially for children. You have to be a bit careful with the diet versions as they are acidic and can cause enamel acid erosion but you need to be drinking about 4 or more cans per day for this to be a problem."
Any sugary drinks or foods contains large amount of sugar can rotten teeth.
