Growth of plaque Multiplication of existing bacteria Addition of new bacteria Accumulation of metabolic products of bacteria Food debris from diet Plaque leads to:• Acids released from dental plaque lead to demineralization of the adjacent
tooth surface, and consequently to dental caries.• Saliva is also unable to penetrate the build-up of plaque and thus cannot act
to neutralize the acid produced by the bacteria and remineralize the tooth surface.
• They also cause irritation of the gums around the teeth that could lead to gingivitis, periodontal disease and tooth loss.
• Plaque build up can also become mineralized and form calculus (tartar).

Dental caries Irreversible progressive bacterial damage to the hard structures of the tooth
characterised by demineralization resulting in the formation of a cavityEtiology--Decalcification by bacterial acid followed by destruction of all other tooth

Acidogenic theoryDental caries is a sugar-dependent infectious disease. Acid is produced from metabolism of carbohydrate by plaque
bacteria, which results in a drop in pH at the tooth surface. In response, calcium and phosphate ions diffuse out of
enamel, resulting in demineralization. This process is reversed when the pH rises again. Caries is therefore a dynamic process characterized by episodic
demineralization and remineralization occurring over time. If destruction predominates, disintegration of the mineral
component will occur, leading to cavitation.

Proteolytic theory In addition to acid, proteolytic substances
produced by plaque bacteria breakdown the organic portion of enamel and dentine

Proteolysis Chelation theory Bacterial attack on enamel is initiated by
keratinolytic bacteria causing breakdown of enamel protein
Organic and inorganic portion of enamel undergoes demineralization by formation of chelates

Saliva and caries Saliva acts as an intra-oral antacid, due to its alkali pH
at high flow-rates and buffering capacity. In addition saliva:
⇓ plaque accumulation and aids clearance of foodstuffs. Acts as a reservoir of calcium, phosphate, and fluoride ions,
thereby favouring remineralization. Has an antibacterial action because of its IgA, lysozyme,
lactoferritin, and lactoperoxidase content.

Prerequisites for development of dental caries Dental plaque containing cariogenic bacteria Bacterial substrate: sugar Susceptible tooth surface• If pH < 5 then demineralization occurs

Enamel caries The initial lesion is visible as a white spot. This appearance is
due to demineralization of the prisms in a sub-surface layer, with the surface enamel remaining more mineralized.
With continued acid attack the surface changes from being smooth to rough, and may become stained.
As the lesion progresses, pitting and eventually cavitation occur.

DENTINE CARIES:
Dentine caries comprises demineralization followed by bacterial invasion,
but differs from enamel caries in the production of secondary dentine and the proximity of the pulp.

ManagementIf lesion confined to enamel , institute preventive measures and keep under
review.If lesion has penetrated dentine radiographically, a restoration is indicated
unless serial radiographs show that it is static.• Removal of diseased enamel and dentine• Removal of pits and fissures• Restoration by filling
– Posterior teeth• Cement & silver amalgam
– Anterior teeth• Acid etch technique
• RCT –Root canal treatment

Criteria for restoration:
• Restoration should be watertight• Form of the tooth should be maintained so
that occlusion is normal• Pulp should be protected with insulating
cement lining

Prevention• Maintenance of oral hygiene
– Proper brushing– Regular scaling– Avoid soft, sticky and sweet diet
• Reduce bacterial load– Mouthwash with 0.2% chlorhexidine, betadine
• Denial of substrate to plaque bacteria– Use saccharine( an artificial sweetener) as bacteria cannot utilize it
• Complete removal of plaque by dentist– Scaling

Fluoride addition
• Inhibits demineralization and promotes remineralization of early caries.
• Fluoride enhances the degree and speed of remineralization and renders the remineralized enamel more resistant to subsequent attack.
• Decreases acid production in plaque by inhibiting glycolysis in cariogenic bacteria.
• An concentration of fluoride in plaque inhibits the synthesis of ⇑extracellular polysaccharide.

Systemic fluoride
• Water fluoridation in a concentration of 1 ppm (1 mg F /litre) gives a caries reduction of 50%.
• Fluoride tablets– depends upon drinking water content– 1 tab contains 2.2 mg of Na Fluoride– <2 yrs : half tab– 2-12 yrs: 1 tab– > 12 yrs: half tab

• Milk with 2.5-7 ppm F has been tried successfully.
• Salt is cheap and effective for rural communities in developing countries where water fluoridation is not feasible

Fluorosis (or mottling) occurs due to a long-term excess of fluoride.
• It is endemic in areas with a high level of fluoride occurring naturally in the water.
• Clinically, it can vary from faint white opacities to severe pitting and discoloration.
