What kills cavities in teeth?

You can’t actually “kill” an established cavity, but you can stop cavity-causing bacteria and prevent further damage. Early-stage demineralisation can be reversed through remineralisation, while formed cavities need professional treatment. Traditional methods like fluoride help but aren’t always enough – nearly half the world’s population suffers from oral health problems. Breakthrough light therapy technology now offers targeted bacterial elimination without disrupting beneficial oral microflora, representing a major advancement in preventive dental care that addresses the root cause of tooth decay.
