AB  - Dental  caries,  periodontitis,  and  the  tooth  loss  and  other  sequelae  that  follow  are  secondary  to  the  microbial  build-up  on  teeth  called  plaque.  The  prevention  and/or  halting  of  the  progression  of  these  diseases  relies  on  the  elimination  of  dental  plaque  from  the  tooth  surfaces.  In  addition  to  causing  caries  and  chronic  periodontitis,  the  bacteria  of  dental  plaque  play  a  role  in  more  aggressive  forms  of  periodontitis  and  necrotizing  periodontal  diseases.
