Anything with sugar can cause caries (decay). Sugar combines with bacteria in your mouth and saliva and becomes acidic. It causes enamel loss and decay. Sugar is the leading cause of tooth decay. In addition, the carbonation in such beverages can wear away tooth enamel.
salvivary glands produce saliva and saliva is a nateral defence against tooth decay and its also part of the digestary system.

No there are no HCO3- in saliva generally.But there are Cl- ions.
The instability of the nuclei is the basic cause of radioactive decay.
Dry mouth is a common (and sometimes severe) problem. It is when the mouth fails to provide enough saliva. Two symptoms include tooth decay, and lack of saliva.
The acid in your mouth is called citric acid. It is produced by bacteria breaking down sugars in food particles, which can lead to tooth decay if not properly cleaned.
