Please list 10 worst foods to eat to get cavities?
Cavities are caused by the bacteria on your teeth digesting the sugar from the food you put in your mouth. Of the sugars sucrose is by far the worst, followed by glucose and then fructose and lactose which don't seem as bad. Also the more sticky a cariogenic (cavity causing) food is the worse for your teeth it is.





The most important thing for prevention though is not so much what you eat but how frequently you eat it.





For example:


If you have a bag of sweets and eat them all at once the amount of acidity of your mouth will rise over about 20 minutes and then return back to normal. There is therefore a 20 minute window while the teeth are being attacked after which they can then recover.





If however you eat one sweet every 10 minutes for the day the amount of acid produced is kept constantly high so the teeth are attacked for longer and so more damage is done without the opportunity to recover.





Once enough damage is done the area is so soft it falls apart leaving a hole. I'm not sure how much that makes sense to you but thats the gist of dental decay.





The take home message is: Bad foods for cavities are sugary and only eat foods bad for your teeth at mealtime rather than constantly throughout the day. Not a list, but helpful advice anyway I hope.

Reply:Soda pop is the number one cavity source. If you don't want to get cavaties, you can still drink soda and eat candy, just brush your teeth twice a day.

Ok I would say soda, if it is regular soda ( I drink diet and use a straw because this helps with it not touching my teeth so much)


Candy- especially just pure sugar candy like jelly beans and stuff like that.


Ice cream probably ( which I love)


caramel -- totally.
