Dental caries Fluoride or fluorine deficiency is a disorder which may cause increased dental caries [ 1 ] and possibly osteoporosis , [ 2 ] [ 3 ] due to a lack of fluoride in diet. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Common dietary sources of fluoride include tea, grape juice, wine, raisins, some seafood, coffee, and tap water that has been fluoridated . [ 6 ]

The specific plaque hypothesis was introduced by Loesche, following on from observations that rodents did not develop caries even with a highly cariogenic diet unless specific bacteria such as streptococci were introduced. [6] It is understood that specific microorganisms play an importance in both caries and periodontal diseases. [7]
There are many factors that influence the diversity of the oral microbiota, such as age, diet, hygiene practices, and genetics. [22] Of particular interest is the role of oral microorganisms in the two major dental diseases: dental caries and periodontal disease. [7]
Early childhood caries (ECC) is a multifactorial disease, with risk factors including but not limited to, cariogenic bacteria, diet practices and socioeconomic factors. [6] Deciduous teeth begin to erupt at 6 months of age, once visible in the oral cavity they are susceptible to tooth decay or dental caries. [1]
Dental caries result when the demineralization rate is faster than the remineralization, producing net mineral loss, which occurs when there is an ecologic shift within the dental biofilm from a balanced population of microorganisms to a population that produces acids and can survive in an acid environment. [75]
Dental calculus typically forms in incremental layers [17] that are easily visible using both electron microscopy and light microscopy. [9] These layers form during periodic calcification events of the dental plaque, [18] but the timing and triggers of these events are not well understood. The formation of calculus varies widely among ...
