An 8th Grade Science Project You Can Sink Your Teeth Into

Have you every thought about what you eat and drink and are concerned that the food or beverage will stain your teeth? Many people do and with the popularity of coffee houses and different varieties more people are drinking coffee as well as tea. Both these beverages stain your teeth. Many health conscience folks like to drink carrot and tomato juices with lots of staining attributes and children love soda, grape juice and all the artificial colored drinks. Wine can also be a culprit

Many beverages are responsible for stained teeth but do you know which ones are the worst and which ones stain the darkest or the fastest? Many colored drinks look bad but actually may not have any coloring effects to your teeth, while others may have an initial effect but disappear within a few minutes. Some may even clean your teeth instead of staining as you would think they might. Some substances stain gradually over time from continued use of the same beverage used every day.

You have just picked a science project you can literally sink your teeth into.

Okay you probably do not want to use your teeth for this experiment but there are many substances equally the same as teeth you can use as well as possibly some of your old teeth your parents kept from when you were a baby.

Sinking some old teeth into beverages for the same period of time can determine a quick staining effect but also you could do this project continually each day for a week or more to test which one stains the most over a prolonged time frame.
