Scientists now recognize that dental cavities (caries or decay) are mainly caused by a bacterial infection on the teeth. Dental cavities are an infectious disease that are associated with high levels of decay causing bacteria and can be transmitted to other members of your household.
CariFree employs advanced infection testing and treatment technology to promote long term dental health, instead of simply treating symptoms by filling cavities. The advanced CariFree system measures the magnitude of harmful bacteria on your teeth with a simple swab test. If harmful decay-causing bacteria is identified, you may be a candidate for the CariFree treatment plan.
Good oral hygiene alone may not stop cavities. Even if you brush, floss, and visit your dentist regularly, harmful levels of the decay-causing bacteria may still be present.
The development of cavities in an individual is affected by that person's susceptibility to the bacteria in their mouth.
