Prevention of caries in adults and children

Preventive dental checkups at the dentist.

What is caries and why is its prevention important?

Caries is a common dental disease caused by the demineralization of enamel under the influence of acids produced by bacteria in the oral cavity. Caries prevention plays a crucial role in maintaining dental health and preventing oral diseases.

Dentist’s Tips for Caries Prevention

A professional dentist from the Prizma clinic provides the following tips for caries prevention in adults and children:

  1. Brush your teeth regularly. Properly brushing your teeth after every meal helps remove plaque and prevent the formation of dental plaque, which can lead to caries.
  2. Use dental floss. Dental floss helps clean between the teeth, where a toothbrush cannot reach.
  3. Limit the consumption of sweet and acidic foods. Sugar and acid contribute to enamel erosion and the growth of bacteria that cause caries.
  4. Visit the dentist regularly. Regular dental visits allow for the detection and treatment of early stages of caries before it becomes a serious problem.
  5. Use fluoride toothpaste. Fluoride helps strengthen enamel and prevents the development of caries.

Caries Prevention in Children

Caries prevention in children is especially important because milk teeth serve as a “bridge” to healthy permanent teeth. Parents should monitor children’s oral hygiene, limit the consumption of sugary beverages, and teach children how to brush their teeth correctly.
