Question

What is dental plaque ? What harm can it do ? How can the formation of plaque be prevented ?

Answer 1

Plaque contains bacteria, which produces acids that attack your tooth enamel and can damage your gums and create cavities. If not treated, the damage could become permanent. When plaque accumulates and is not removed, it can mineralize, trapping stains and turning into tartar.

Answer 2

Answer:

Dental plaque is a sticky, colourless or pale yellow film that is formed on the teeth. Dental plaque causes tooth decay. Plaque can contribute to bad breath. Formation of plaque can be prevented by-

. Brushing the teeth at least twice a day.

. Doing floss between the teeth at least once a day to remove food particles and bacteria.

. Using antibacterial mouth rinse to reduce bacteria that cause plaque and gum disease.
