What exactly is dental plaque?
- It is a yellow sticky film that actually forms on your teeth and gums, mostly after eating or drinking during the course of the day;
- It can be seen at your gum margins of your teeth with disclosing tablets;
- The bacteria in plaque apparently converts the carbohydrates in food such as sugar into an acid, and this then breaks down your teeth, and eventually causes cavities;
- It can be removed by daily brushing and flossing your teeth. This activity can also prevent a build-up of tartar on your teeth;
- It can also cause inflammation of the gums, something that is known as gingivitis. When your gums are inflamed, it will normally be red in color, it can make the gums feel extremely tender, and it can also cause easy bleeding when brushing or flossing your teeth. If the inflammation of the gums is not treated and left, it could possibly affect the actual bones around the teeth, and cause bone resorption which is also known as periodontists.
