When a person intakes food, the bacteria present in the oral cavity helps in breakdown of food and ferments the carbohydrate present in them.


This results in the production of acids as a by- product.

These acids when increases in content cause tooth decay by dissolving the enamel of the teeth.


Therefore, it is necessary to use a basic/ alkaline based toothpaste in order to neutralise the acids and protect the teeth from decay and erosion.
