Caries Infection (the cause of decay):

You brush, floss, limit sugary foods, and visit a dentist regularly, yet you still get cavities. Sound familiar? Have you ever wondered why? Your cavities are a symptom of tooth decay caused by a bacterial infection that is known to be a biofilm disease.

What is a biofilm? Biofilm is a very thin, highly sophisticated film that grips the teeth and harbors bacteria. Thankfully due to major advances in oral health and biofilm science, we are now able to determine your risk for decay before you ever get cavities. However, to reap the rewards of this kind of science, you have to be proactive and make an appointment at our office! So don’t delay. Call us today to find out your risk for decay!
