The cause of tooth decay is acid, which is “primed” by frequent exposure to sugar. To
produced by bacteria in the mouth. The acid keep your teeth healthy, a regular dental
removes minerals from tooth enamel, hygiene program should be followed.
allowing tooth decay to begin; the saliva in
your mouth encourages remineralization and Removing plaque with a toothbrush and
Line neutralizes the acid. The rate at which dental floss temporarily reduces the numbers
bacteria in the mouth produce acid depends of bacteria in the mouth and thus reduces
on the amount of plaque on the teeth, the tooth decay. It also makes the surfaces of
composition of the microbial flora, and the teeth more accessible, enabling saliva to
whether the bacteria of the plaque have been neutralize acid and remineralise lesions. If
fluoride is present in drinking water when
teeth are forming, some fluoride is
incorporated into the enamel of the teeth,
making them more resistant to attack by
acid. Fluoride toothpaste seems to act in
another way, by promoting the
remineralization of early carious lesions.
In addition to a regular dental hygiene
program, a good way to keep your teeth
healthy is to reduce your intake of sweet
food. The least cavity- causing way to eat
sweets is to have them with meals and not
between. The number of times you eat
sweets rather than the total amount
determines how much harmful acid the
bacteria in your saliva produce. But the
amount of sweets influences the quality of
your saliva. Avoid, if you can, sticky sweets
that stay in your mouth a long time. Also try
to brush and floss your teeth after eating
sugary foods. Even rinsing your mouth with
water is effective. Whenever possible, eat
foods with fiber, such as raw carrot sticks,
apples, celery sticks, etc., that scrape off
plaque, acting as a toothbrush. Cavities can
be greatly reduced if these rules are
followed when eating sweets.
