Sweet tooth?
brushing after eating sweets can control cavities but some times in pits %26amp; fissers its imposible to clean.
Reply:If you brush your teeth afterwards it should help. Cavities are caused when sugar stays on your teeth long enough to cause problems.
Reply:you shouldnt be eating loads of sweets in the first place. not good for you. i guess you wouldnt get as much if you brush your teeth after every meal.
Reply:if you follow proper oral hygiene, the chances of getting any further cavities are very rare. Normally, after eating sweets, always gargle your mouth with tap water so that whatever food particles that may have been stuck to your teeth are also removed. And yes brushing twice or even three times helps a lot in prevention of cavity formation.
Reply:Also, chewing sugarless gum can help. It gets the particles off that might just otherwise stay on your teeth. Additionally, if you have gum in your mouth already, you might not be as likely to reach for something sweet! ;-)
