What goes wrong with teeth - decay
![Page 22: NHS Devon How to Keep Your Teeth and Mouth Healthy · •What can go wrong ... Check your toothbrush regularly. Change your brush every 3 months. And don’t share. Manual v Power](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043011/5fa491a672f1bd36d63f43e7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
How Teeth Decay......
• There are millions of
GOOD and BAD bacteria
in our mouths
• The bad bacteria eats the sugar and changes it into acid
• The acid damages the enamel on the teeth
• Which then causes decay
or holes in our teeth
