Tooth decay is the loss of tooth surface substance caused by germs (bacteria). How can I prevent tooth decay? Here are some methods to prevent tooth decay.

1. Limit the frequency of intake of sugar.
As well as controlling the amount of sugar in your food and drink, it is important to keep the frequency to a minimum. The more frequently you eat or drink sugar, the more likely you are to get tooth decay. Avoid sugary snacks between meals. Savory foods, cheese and fruit are better for your teeth than sweets, biscuits and cakes.
 
2. Efficient brushing and flossing to remove the plaque from the teeth.
Plaque is difficult to see because it is the same colour as the teeth. 
Below is a picture of teeth which have been disclosed using a plaque disclosing agent.
 
3. Appropriate use of fluoride.
Fluoride which is swallowed or applied directly to the teeth acts in many ways to reduce the chances of tooth decay. Fluoride is present in most toothpastes; for young children, try to use no more than the size of a pea.
 
4. Fissure sealants.
Fissures are natural indentations in the biting surfaces of the back teeth. Fissures are more prone to decay, more difficult to keep clean and less protected by fluoride than the smooth tooth surfaces. Your dentist can seal in the fissures to make the teeth less prone to decay.
 
5. Regular dental check-ups.
Regular visits will allow the dentist to detect tooth decay at an early stage, when cavitation may be prevented.
