| These bacteria may be relatively harmless when present in thin layers, but when they accumulate as thick layers of plaque on the surfaces of the teeth, they are cariogenic. |
| Those foods containing refined carbohydrates that are fine enough to remain on the teeth by sticking to the fissures on the tooth surface are termed cariogenic. |
| Some formulas, especially soy-based formulas that contain sucrose, can be cariogenic. |
| Since processed maize is highly cariogenic, dental caries and resulting tooth loss increase with the adoption of maize agriculture. |
| Besides is produces a cooling effect on the tongue similar to the fresh flavour of menthol, without being cariogenic. |
| In light of the above findings we propose that PAD therapy enhances the effectiveness of CPP-ACP by removing the cariogenic bacteria. |
