When the ph of our mouth is 5.5 or lower,it means a acidic medium is created in our mouth.

Acidic medium provides bacteria's to act....the food left over in our month stars breaking down to form sucrose and hence,tooth decay stars taking place.

hope it helps

GOOD LUCK FOR UR BOARD EXAMS !

tooth enamel is made of calcium phosphate which is the hardest substance in human body. however it gets corroded when ph of mouth is lower than 5.5 .upon its corrosion bacteria present in the mouth ( which feed on food particles stuck between the teeth ) start attacking the dentine and the pulp causing pain and irritation
