Did you know that cavities develop faster during the night time than the day? During the day, the constant movement of the tongue and saliva prevent bacteria from staying in our mouth and causing cavities, whereas during the night time there is very less movement and almost no saliva. While you sleep, the bacteria residing in the mouth feed on the foods present in the mouth and release acids that cause tooth decay. Make an appointment with us to treat your cavities at an initial stage to avoid further complications.
