A combination of sugar, saliva and bacteria is highly likely to lead to tooth decay. The sugar sucrose is found in all of the fruit juices (that are going to be tested on the cuttlefish). Sucrose produces a substance glycoproteins (composed of carbohydrates and protein molecules) which coats the teeth forming plaque, whilst this is occurring millions of streptococcus mutans (bacteria found in the oral cavity, which leads to tooth decay) join and connect to the glycoprotein. From here the bacteria uses the fructose the is present to metabolism the glycolysis to gain energy.
From the very start, we could all see that Tom Buchanan was far from a good guy. He lives in the East Egg with his wife Daisy, and every time we saw him it seemed like he had a different life. Furthermore, Tom is a man of pride, which makes his rivalry with Jay Gatsby much more intense. He betrayed everyone he met and used his wealth to avoid bad situations. Which is why the best theme to fit with Tom Buchanan is betrayal and corruption.
What most people are not familiar with is the scientific name, Streptococcus mutant. But it is commonly known as tooth decay. This organism was first documented around the 1890’s discovered by W. D. Miller whom was a dentist but also had the theory that the dental caries were form by the sugar intake and over time it caused an acidic reaction to the teeth. But aside the theories made by Miller, dental caries/decay can date back to prehistoric time.
Bacteria: These are the root of the problem, and roots are what they target. A buildup of bacteria on your teeth can result in slow tooth decay.
If left untreated, pulp infection can lead to abscess, destruction of bone, and systemic infection (Cawson et al. 1982; USDHHS 2000). Various sources have concluded that water fluoridation has been an effective method for preventing dental decay (Newbrun 1989; Ripa 1993; Horowitz 1996; CDC 2001; Truman et al. 2002). Water fluoridation is supported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as one of the 10 great public health achievements in the United States, because of its role in reducing tooth decay in children and tooth loss in adults (CDC 1999). Each U.S. Surgeon General has endorsed water fluoridation over the decades it has been practiced, emphasizing that “[a] significant advantage of water fluoridation is that all residents of a community can enjoy its protective benefit…. A person’s income level or ability to receive dental care is not a barrier to receiving fluoridation’s health benefits” (Carmona 2004). As noted earlier, this report does not evaluate nor make judgments about the benefits, safety, or efficacy of artificial water fluoridation. That practice is reviewed only in terms of being a source of exposure to
The results show that HCl had the highest decay rate. Distilled water increase in mass and orange juice showed the least amount of decay. Comparing the two sodas together the darker soda, coke, was the worse compared to the lighter soda, citrus twist. The monster energy drink was found to be the most harmful for your teeth, being a drink unlike HCl which is not a something at you can drink. HCl is not something you can drink it was used as an extreme for the tooth to show the decay rate. Distilled water is used as controlled group. The conditions unlike reality were exposed to this solution for weeks without being brushed. When looking at the data collected for the first week the tooth in the distilled water increased in mass due to the tooth
If decay in primary teeth is not addressed in a timely fashion, not only will it affect the children’s ability to chew and speak but it can also have a significant impact on the permanent teeth as well. Once a tooth has a cavity in it, that bacteria will spread to the neighboring teeth. If bacteria migrates below the gingiva, an abscess could occur which will delay or prevent the permanent teeth from erupting. An abscess will cause a lot of pain to the children and the affected tooth can be
The eyes are the window to the soul, but the smile is the welcome to the heart. With proper care, your teeth should last a lifetime. The greatest enemy of gum and teeth is plaque. Plaque is the sticky, colorless film of bacteria that forms on the teeth. Plaque engenders bacterial magnification that damages the enamel. This could lead to discoloration and cavities. When food containing carbohydrates are left on the teeth, plaque is developed. This can cause gum disease and, this is the major cause of missing teeth in adults. There is a way you can prevent these revolting things from happening, by using a scalar.
There have been very few books that I have changed in relation to the amount I 've been forced to read and in the amount that exist / I 've enjoyed a few Greek tragedies like the story of promethius or atlas, world war z, do androids dream of electric sleep, many of Isaac Asimov 's books, many of Arthur C Clarke 's books as well, some H.P. Love craft works, 1984, starship troopers, anthem and the halo book series. Not that I don 't enjoy reading, I read everyday as a matter of fact but they tend to be news articles, opinion pieces, forums, academic journals in the sciences, Wikipedia entries and so on but not any books. I 've never really enjoyed the books that were specifically assigned to be read in school and books I did enjoy I read earlier like anthem or Fahrenheit 451. Reading at school always to me seemed like an act in futility since I didn 't enjoy it since the material wasn 't very interesting to me and that I already a more than generous amount on my own on the internet but that never counted and the material certainly wasn 't covered in the computer quizzes that also gave one special reading points in elementary school. However the first interesting books that I did read I was enthralled by. Not only because of the interesting stories but also because of the various philosophical implications. I particularly enjoyed the trope of an ancient precursor civilization that is used in many scifi today, something started by Arthur C Clarke. Even today the most
Based on my findings in the two given articles, I am choosing to support the safety of sucralose as a nonnutritive sweetener. As mentioned in the article, “ Sweeteners Facts and Fallicies,” there is little research on the effects of sucralose in the human systems. In fact, it wasn’t until I did my own search of sucralose in the database that I realized just how limited recent studies, or studies as a whole for that matter, were in terms of effects on humans. Majority of research, much of which was used in the determination of consumption safety, was performed on lab rats. As a consumer, opting heavily for the nonnutritive sweetener, “Splenda,” I find it extremely unsettling that there isn’t more extensive data on the direct effects that the
I read the article “Newly discovered microbe keeps teeth healthy.” The article reveals that there might be a new and improved, scientific way to prevent cavities. Along with regular brushing and flossing, and a diet low in sugary sweets, germs and bacteria could help prevent cavities. The bacteria can halt or limit the tooth erosion that leads to the decay. Marcelle Nascimento and Robert Burne (dental researchers at the University of Florida in Gainesville) conducted an experiment to see just how helpful this bacteria can be. They both used cotton swabs to sample bacteria in the mouths of kids ages two through seven years old. Some of the children involved in the experiment had healthy teeth, while others had multiple cavities. Cavities are
My group had the ethical topic of socialized healthcare. As I am on the opposing side, my beliefs are that healthcare should not be mandated by the government. It should not be the taxpayers responsibility for paying for the healthcare of those Americans that can’t afford to purchase a healthcare plan. Instead, it should be the Churches responsibility to take care of those that are sick and in need. I believe that having the government force the rich to pay in not an ethical solution.
Unforgivably sugar is linked to multiple effects that cannot be reversed. Tooth decay diabetes along with many other forms of health problems. In addition, I agree with your comment “today's on-the-go life style, many food manufacturers are marketing to those who have neither the time, nor the patience, to either make their own meals, or go out of their way for healthier options”. This comment is unfortunately true concerning the average person within today’s society. People often do not obtain the time to prepare their own food. Therefore, pre-made food is there only choice. This becomes an issue since sugar additives is essential to products ingredients. However this may cause issue since sugar is linked to multiple health issues.
Previous scientific research findings have helped to warn consumers that the pH (potential of hydrogen) levels in beverages such as soda could lead to tooth erosion, the breakdown of tooth structure caused by the effect of acid on the teeth that leads to decay. However, the pH level of soft drinks isn't the only factor that causes dental erosion. A beverage's "buffering capacity," or the ability to neutralize acid, plays a significant role in the cause of dental erosion. Popular energy drinks also cause tooth erosion.
My current event is on the highlight of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) report on the reduction of tooth decay because of water fluoridation. The communities that do water fluoridation add a certain amount of fluoride to the water supply that they drink to prevent cavities (caries). The fluoride keeps the enamel strong and prevents tooth decay. It says that caries are one of the most common diseases in children. The studies showed that the amount of caries where substantially lower in the communities with water fluoridation and that the caries where increased when the water fluoridation
