Which can lead to tooth decay and other dental issues.  Acid reflux can also cause bad breath issues.  So it is not only important to speak to a doctor when dealing with acid reflux but also talk to your dentist.    Let your dentist know that you are dealing with acid reflux.  That way they will know to check more carefully for signs of tooth enamel erosion as well as wear on fillings.
