Answer:
DIGESTION -our stomach produces hcl(hydrochloric acid )which has ph of 1.2 (acidic)
During indigestion our stomach produces excessive acid which cause pain and irritation .
to neutralize or get relief we use a mild base likhe magnesium hydroxide,ENOetc
TEETH DECAY- when the pH of our mouth is below 5.4 tooth begans to decay as there are some bacteria present in our mouth which eats up tooth enamel which is the hardest substance of our body also called calcium phosphate.To neutralize or stop the tooth decay we use toothpaste which is a base.
