Answers:
Cavities are caused by the acids that the bacteria in your mouth produce when they metabolize the foods you eat!. If you eat foods high in sugar/carbs you will have more acids!. If the foods are sticky, the acids will stick around for even longer!. A sugary drink causes your mouth to be more acidic for up to 20 min!. A snack can cause more acidity for up to 40 min!. It can actually last for up to 2 hours if you were to fall asleep after eating without brushing/flossing!. Think about your diet!. Try to stay away from sugary foods/drinks!. If you do eat them, try to brush after - or at the very least, rinse vigorously!. Remember to brush AND floss every night before bed!. It would also be a great idea to use a fluoride rinse (such as Act or Fluoriguard) right before bed!. Rinse for one minute - do not swallow any - do not rinse after, and go to bed!. Fluoride strengthens the teeth!. And make sure you are visiting your dentist at least every 6 months (or what he/she recommends) for an exam and cleaning!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Do you visit the dentist regularly!? As much as you brush and floss you still should go and get a cleaning!. There are some things brushing and flossing can not do!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
