Eating sweet foods produces acid in the mouth, which can cause tooth decay. (High acid levels are measured by low pH values) Describe the information below and discuss the implications for dental health.
The multiple-line charts illustrate the information about the acid level in the mouth created by consuming sweet foods such as sugar and honey and the possibility of tooth decay because of this acid level.
Overall, it is visible from the first glands that Ken’s sugar is the highest one in this paragraph, and the time elapsed after eating sugar is 40 minutes.
Taking into account the given data, cane sugar and fruit sugar both first decrease and then increase their pH level. After 33 minutes, honey and fruit sugar have an equal acid level in the mouth, the same as normal.
Now considering other information, in the line graph, first of all, the highest acid level measured in fruit sugar with 7 PH and the lowest in cane sugar with only a 3.5 pH level in starting time elapsed after consuming sugar and honey. In addition, in the middle, a dotted line separates the acid level at which tooth decay is unlikely and at which tooth decay occurs.
In short, all of the sweet items possess the possibility of causing tooth decay and honey and fruit sugar are likely to cause less decay than cane sugar does.
