A non-invasive liquid treatment can help stop decay from progressing in certain baby teeth, offering another option when cavities are caught early.

Some infections sit quietly at the root, undetected on X-ray and unfelt until they’re flagged at a routine visit.

But the story is more nuanced. Your mouth is home to a complex ecosystem, and balance within that ecosystem matters just as much as cleanliness.

Your mouth naturally produces saliva to wash away food particles, neutralize acids, and help remineralize enamel. When saliva flow decreases, those protective benefits decrease too.
