Sugar does not cause cavities. But the mixture of added sugar in the foods that we eat and certain strains of oral bacteria triggers the production of the acids that attack and damage our tooth enamel. When the protective quality of our enamel is weakened, the more vulnerable layers of our teeth are put at risk for infection. If we stop to read the labels of content on the grocery products that we buy we can lower our intake of added sugar.
