Tooth Cavity Causes and Treatment, Stop Rotting Teeth and Prevent Gum Disease
TOOTH decay may not be at the forefront of many people’s minds, but if plaque is allowed to build up on teeth, painful dental caries, gum disease, or dental abscesses can form. A dentist has revealed seven ways to prevent rotting teeth. Tooth decay happens when acid is produced from plaque and then builds up on teeth. The NHS explains when you eat food and drinks high in carbohydrates, particularly sugary foods and drinks.
The bacteria in plaque turn the carbohydrates into energy they need while producing acid at the same time. But if plaque builds up, the acid can begin to break down the surface of the teeth. Dr. Richard Marques, of Dr. Richard Marques Dental Practice, revealed to Express.co.uk seven ways you can prevent tooth decay from happening.
