I don't think pH works the way you think it does. Neutral pH is 7, things with a lower pH are more acidic Things with a higher pH are basic. So Carbonated wate

Things with a higher pH are basic.
So Carbonated water, with it pH of ~4 is a much stronger acid than something with a pH of 5
- magicalist 12y agoah, I can see how you could read my last statement like that, but we're actually in agreement. Carbonated water's acidity puts it at a lower pH than the acidity needed to start demineralization, so carbonic acid can cause enamel erosion.
