Sweets and tooth decay


SWEETS AND TOOTH DECAY


  • Normally bacteria are present in our mouth but they are not harmful to us.
  • However, if we do not clean our teeth and mouth after eating, many harmful bacteria also reside and grow in it.
  • These bacteria break down the sugars present from the leftover food and release acids.

  • The acids gradually damage the teeth. This is called tooth decay.
