Constant Acidity Exposes Teeth to Erosion and Cavities
Gastroesophageal reflux is a disorder of the digestive system in which stomach acids flow back into the esophagus, sometimes affecting the tissues of the oral cavity. This condition can occur multiple times throughout the day and has unpleasant consequences for the teeth: stomach acids (hydrochloric acid) pose a threat to dental health, gradually and relentlessly wearing down and damaging the teeth.
Using Cariex® can help neutralize oral acidity in people affected by this condition, thereby preventing dental erosion caused by the acids in stomach juices and stopping the continuous demineralization of tooth tissue that creates an environment favorable to cavities.
