Plaque!!! A word we often hear from our dentist, but do we actually know what it is? Plaque is a sticky biofilm made up of thousands of bacteria occurring naturally. Whenever we eat food rich in sugar or carbohydrate content, these bacteria feed on them and produces an acidic by-product that harms our tooth enamel and form cavities.Acc to Dr. Sachin Mittal, to keep the mouth free from these naturally occurring bacteria and to prevent cavities, one should follow some basic tips:Tip 1: Brush twice a day, and if it is possible for you to brush, do it after every meal.
