Maintaining good oral hygiene and addressing cavities promptly can help protect both teeth and gums.

Can milk cause cavities?
Yes, milk can contribute to cavities, but plain milk is generally less harmful than sugary drinks. It contains lactose, a natural sugar, so repeatedly sipping it or letting it stay on the teeth for long periods can increase decay risk. The greatest concern is giving a child a bottle of milk at bedtime or allowing them to fall asleep with it, because the teeth remain coated while saliva flow is reduced. Flavoured milk is riskier because it often contains added sugar. Plain milk is best given with meals. Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, and after the bedtime brushing, offer only water.
