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.
