CARIES/Cavities are NOT genetic!!!!





Just because you have bad teeth, doesn't mean it's from your gene's! Cavities are a CONTAGIOUS bacterial infection. The bacteria that contribute to carious lesions are Streptococcus mutans and lactobacillus. When every person is born, they only have good bacteria inhibiting their mouths, when someone kisses the baby, they infect the baby with the bacteria in their mouth. This is where trouble starts! People think, "oh, my mom had really bad teeth, so I am going to have bad teeth (due to genes)". NOT true! The caregiver infected the child with the cavity causing bacteria when their saliva entered the child's mouth! Also, not only does the caregiver infect their child with the cavity causing bacteria, but they pass on their morals about oral health (which many people who have a lot of cavities are not very positive about).





So, you obviously have these cavity causing bacteria in high levels in your mouth and there is no way to get rid of them completely. The only thing you can do is brush really good as much as you can. This is the only way to reduce the number of bacteria, however they will start multiplying as soon as you have finished brushing. Also, be sure you are drinking fluoridated water, as well as using fluoride products. Ask your dentist about home care fluoride treatments to help remineralize your tooth surfaces.





Another thing, once a tooth has a cavity/filling, it is now easier for decay to form than it was on that tooth surface with out a cavity or filling.





Scientist are trying to find a bacteria that is strong enough to replace cavity causing bacteria that do no harm to your teeth. Here is an article about it, just scroll down to "Future". It is really interesting!

Also here is an herbal sucker that claims it reduces streptococcus mutans:

Good luck and take care!
Reply:being prone to cavaties is a genetic thing, it is the quality of your teeth and there is very little you can do for it. The best bet you have is using either toothpaste or mouthwash with a high flouride content. It deosn't matter if the tooth brush you use is the most expensive and the toothpaste you use is top of the line. what truly matters if how long you brush.. 2 minutes morning and night and floss daily.. Try using a toothpaste with a high sodium flouride at night. brush for 2 mins spit but DON'T rinse go straight to bed don't drink water, let the flouride sit on your teeth all night. If you can't find a high flouride toothpaste use ACT mouthwash, or a mouthwash that says anticavity, rinse twice a day for 1 whole mintue and don't eat or drink for at least a half hour afterwards.


This along with cutting out sodas and juices between meals.. only drink water when you're thirsty if you must have juice, drink water right afterwards, that'll help rinse away any juice left on your teeth.
Reply:i think that everyone no matter how much they floss etc that your teeth are part of your dna string if your dad /mum had bad teeth it will run in the gene
Reply:u have a predisposition to caries.. which in children is called " rampant caries" . the best u can do to save your teeth is maintain good oral hygiene and as and when required get your fillings done... all these fluoride toothpastes and mouthwashes do help but u cannot use them all throughout your life..


everyone has a definite tooth color so dot worry about your teeth being less whiter than your cousin's .. the most important thing is maintaining good oral hygiene.. using false teeth at this age just because u have caries is not advisable.. so dont use any false teeth ..just maintain good cleaning and good diet.. get regular professional cleaning , every 6 months and visit your dentist regularly..that should solve the problem.. i had come across a toothpaste called as R.O.C.S. they say that it remineralises tooth , but i am not very sure about it.. so try doing fillings as far as possible when required, if u have caries in spite of good hygiene and diet.. .. dont take out tooth ..until and unless its impossible to treat it otherwise.





hope that this helps!! ))
