Tooth Decay: Why Are Teeth Still Decaying



Tooth Decay-Why Are Teeth Still Decaying from Douglas Sandquist on Vimeo.

Tooth Decay is a caused by bacteria. Certain bacteria produce an acid when they consume sugar. This acid is what etches the teeth and causes carious lesions in the teeth. These bacteria thrive in an acidic oral environment, so the treatment of tooth decay involves neutralizing the pH in the mouth and eliminating the bacteria that produce the most acid.
