What is the best cavity prevention for children?

Traditional brushing removes only 65% of plaque bacteria, leaving children vulnerable to cavities despite parents’ best efforts. Modern cavity prevention combines limiting sugary foods, maintaining proper oral hygiene, and using innovative photodynamic therapy that eliminates up to 99.998% of harmful plaque bacteria. With childhood tooth extractions rising dramatically and antibiotic-resistant oral bacteria becoming more common, families need comprehensive approaches that target the root cause of tooth decay for lasting protection.
