Home remedies

  • Xylitol : Since it is a non-fermentable sugar, it cannot be converted to acid by oral bacteria. Thus, the alkaline-acid balance in the mouth is maintained, which helps in preventing cavities.
  • licorice root is effective against the bacteria which causes tooth decay and gum disease, both of which can lead to tooth loss.
