The Hidden Causes of Cavities--It's Not Just Sugar

Think cavities are just about sugar? Think again! In this eye-opening episode, Dabney dives deep into the real root cause of tooth decay: the bacterial war raging in your mouth. You’ll discover:

• The cavity-causing bacteria (Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus)—and why some people have more of them than others.

• How sugar feeds these bacteria—but why cutting sugar alone isn’t always enough.

• The surprising role of saliva (and why dry mouth is a cavity’s best friend).

• Fluoride’s benefits—and its limitations (why it’s not a magic bullet).

• Powerful foods & herbs that naturally fight cavities, including:

  • Licorice root (a bacteria killer)

  • Green tea (disrupts plaque)

  • Cloves & cinnamon (nature’s antiseptics)

  • Cheese & crunchy veggies (remineralize teeth)

• Xylitol & probiotics—the secret weapons your dentist might not have told you about.

• Salivary testing—how to check your unique bacterial profile and take control of your oral health.

If you’ve ever wondered why you still get cavities despite brushing or fluoride, this episode will change the way you think about dental health forever. Tune in and learn how to create an oral environment where cavities can’t thrive!
