Answer:
- Dental Caries or tooth decay causes gradual softening of enamel and dentine.
- It begins when bacteria acting on sugars produce acids that softens or demineralises the enamel.
- Masses of bacterial cells together with food particles stick to the teeth to form dental plaque.
- Saliva cannot reach the tooth surface to neutralise the acid as plaque covers the teeth.
- Brushing the teeth after eating removes the plaque before the bacteria produce acids.
- If untreated, microorganisms may invade pulp, causing inflammation and infection.
