Caries develop when a certain type of acid-producing bacteria begins to destroy the enamel of the teeth and the underlying layer. When these bacteria begin their action, there is no way to block them: you have to go to the dentist and get the tooth treated.

63 children with cavities were involved, who were divided into three groups. The first group was entrusted with a standard diet, with the addition of oatmeal for breakfast.
