Dental caries is most common with the food linked illness. Nations (like Eskimo) which eat traditional food do not suffer from this
illness.
Everything about the dental caries:
- caries starts with the demineralisation of the tooth which causes the formation of the cavity;
- it is caused by the bacterial lactic acid formed from the sugars;
- some sugar bacterial stumps can form a sorde which adds the effect of the acid, burdens cleaning and positively influences on the bacteria formation;
- teeth hygiene and a diet has a big impact on the formation of the caries;
- actually, each product which contains carbohydrates is a cariogene, a sugar is especially good source for the bacteria that’s why sticky sweets are typical caries causing products;
- honey is causing a caries same as a sugar;
- sour products and drinks can cause the teeth damage as well;
- for the caries prevention it is important to ingest for the teeth formation necessary nutrients, especially a calcium - fluorine prevents formation of the acid in the mouth but it is not necessary if the hygiene of the mouth is performed regularly and healthy and balanced food is ingested.
