Dental cavities remain one of the major health issues in industrialized countries, affecting 60 to 90% of school-aged children and the majority of adults.
According to recent data from the Ministry of Health, the number of children with cavities has increased by 15% in recent years, making it still the most widespread disease worldwide.
Several factors have contributed to this growing trend: a poor diet high in sugar (cookies and snacks, fizzy drinks and sweets, candies, energy drinks), low consumption of fruits and vegetables, and often inadequate preventive care due to improper oral hygiene.
It is therefore essential to raise children’s awareness about dental health from an early age and to educate them on proper oral hygiene. Unfortunately, in recent years, many schools have introduced bans on bringing toothbrushes to class to prevent potential cross-contamination, making it even more challenging for teachers and dental hygienists to carry out educational programs.
In some schools, a medical certificate is even required for a child to brush their teeth at school.
This is where Cariex® comes in as the perfect “Desk Companion.” A convenient, all-natural spray that restores pH immediately after eating, completely preventing cavities, even for children with orthodontic braces. No more risks for young students.
