message: If you do a google search for acid erosion: Google:acid erosion, you get 1,910,000 results.  The whole first page is to do with dental acid erosion.  Wikipedia's page is nowhere to be found, whereas with other topics Wikipedia usually has the first result.  Instead the first page is a site by the company GlaxoSmithkline selling their acid erosion toothpaste.  
'Dental erosion' doesn't even mention acid and it isn't widely known as that  - it is more widely known as 'acid erosion'.  I see Acid erosion already redirects to here.  See: Topic_creation#Use_the_most_easily_recognized_name It is wikipedia policy to us the most widely recognised name.  Tremello22 (talk) 19:56, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Should be renamed to "Acid erosion" 

message: This article would benefit from a section describing drinks and foods to use as less-erosive substitutes. For example, is tea preferred over colas? It would be helpful if a knowledgeable person would add this info. 72.208.151.106 (talk) 14:48, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Substitute beverages and foods 

message: In the article on carbonated water, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonated_water the pH due to the presence of carbonic acid is said to be between 3-4.  In this article, foods/drinks below 5.0 are said to cause acid erosion, so I think the note about "not carbonic acid" is quite possibly erroneous.  The pH 3-4 range is cited in the carbonated water article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonated_water#cite_note-ph-5 but the assertion about phosphoric vs. carbonic acid in this article is not cited.   I suggest changing that line to read that carbonated beverages (even plain carbonated water) is within the range thought to cause acid erosion.  I don't know if we have a source that actually links carbonated water to acid erosion directly, but it's not too much to say that plain carbonated water is within the range. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.245.10.75 (talk) 21:07, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

message: Under the section "Intrinsic acidic sources" I found this sentence: " The main cause of GERD is increased acid production by the stomach".
Reading about GERD, I found that the main cause of GERD is in fact a failure of the lower esophageal sphincter.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastroesophageal_reflux_disease#Causes
"It is due to poor closure of the lower esophageal sphincter (the junction between the stomach and the esophagus)"
"GERD is caused by a failure of the lower esophageal sphincter."
It also seems unnecessary to state the cause of GERD in that paragraph.
