Hi guys, in this video we're going to talk about how to never have cavities again.

If you're a dentist, if you're a parent, make note, the derivation of cavities comes

from the Latin word which means decay.

And it's just bizarre to me to think that a small child or even a teenager, that young

would have a part of their body in a state of decay.

So is it that they're not brushing enough or flossing enough or maybe it's not enough

fluoride, right?

I don't think so.

This is what's really happening.

If you think about the enamel around the tooth, it's stronger than steel.

It would take something very, very powerful to disrupt that.

So what's really happening to the enamel, which is bone tissue, is we're getting a

de-mineralization, which we're leaching out calcium and phosphorus.

And the way that's happening is because the pH in the mouth is becoming very, very acidic.

The normal pH of your mouth should be around seven.

That's neutral.

It drops down to a six, and a five, and sometimes even a four.

So acids have the capacity to break down bone tissue.

But if we go earlier, there's an excessive amount of a certain bacteria that's doing it.
