Many factors influence the strength of our tooth enamel, and demineralization and remineralization are among the many. Demineralization happens when there is a shortage of mineral ions in the oral environment compared to our tooth enamel's mineral content. The organic acids produced by plaque and bacteria eat away the enamel crystal, resulting in porous tooth enamel and cavities. Remineralization is the process of tooth enamel repair. The lost calcium, fluoride, and phosphate ions are replaced by stronger and larger crystals that are more resistant to acid attacks. So, to keep our teeth in good condition, our body must balance the ratio between remineralization and demineralization. Disturbance to the ratio can lead to the weakening of tooth enamel and also impact your oral health and function.
