Q. Dear doctor my problem is that caries occure interproximally and i don’t know how to control this problem although i brush my teeth 3 times daily and i use dental floss after each meal and also i use chlorhexidine mouth wash thanx
A. Interproximal caries is traditionally associated with diet. Recent advice is that frequency rather than quality is most important, cut out snacking, stick to three meals a day and avoid drinks that are sweetened or fruit juices. Anything that a bacteria can ferment to get energy from will cause some decay.

What about rampant caries in adult?
This has a very large dietary element – compulsive mint eating for example. This brings the ph in your mouth to a low enough level to allow decay to start.
