Can Proteins Help to Prevent Plaque?

Chinese scientists are experimenting with a vaccine that might be able to prevent plaque from building up on the teeth. In turn, appointments with the dentist could be reduced. What are some surprising facts associated with this potential remedy?

– This vaccine uses otherwise potentially harmful bacteria as a form of oral protection.

– One of the principle components of this concoction is E Coli.

– The incidence of tooth decay in clinical studies was reduced by up to 53.9 percent.

take care of your teeth with regular brushing with fluoride toothpaste and flossing. Get your teeth cleaned and examined every six months. That’s the best way to prevent cavities.
