Yes, but you may experience increased staining
You can drink coffee. Just make sure it is not really hot.
Yes, there is no contraindication.
Of course. The roots may be a bit sensitive to any sweetener, or even to the heat until the dentinal tubules re-mineralize. I recommend using an irrigator to keep them clean and the gums infection free.
