Sharing Info: Bacteria in your mouth.
Do you know bacteria is building up in your mouth right now? If this bacteria build up is not taken care of, it can lead to many common oral health problems.
1. Cavities
Tooth decay can start when you eat sugary or starchy foods. Bacteria act on these foods, producing harmful acids that can lead to cavities.
2. Gum problems
If you experience gum discomfort when you brush, you may suffer from gum problems that may be caused by bacteria build up.
3. Sensitive teeth
Bacteria build up can cause many oral health problems that may eventually lead to sensitive teeth.
4. Tartar
Bacteria building up along the gum line can harden and lead to tartar. Once tartar has formed, only your dentist or hygienist can remove it.
5. Bad Breath
When food stays in your mouth, in between teeth, on the tongue and around the gums, it can breed bacteria which can cause bad breath.
Now what say you?
Take care of your mouth hygiene and the teeth, especially.
