Lets talk – PLAQUE Build-up
What is it: A sticky film of bacteria caused when left over food particles mix with your saliva and harden over time.
Bacteria from Plaque produces acid, which if left untreated can result in tooth decay.
Plaque can lead to gum inflammation, bleeding and more seriously Periodontitis.
Prevention: Good Oral Hygiene
- Brushing twice daily
- Flossing at least once daily
- Regular dental check ups and cleans.
Dental Tip: Regular brushing & flossing aids in the removal of soft bacteria (Tartar) before it hardens and becomes plaque.
