Plaque is sticky, and 300 kinds of bacteria can produce and grow within plaque.
•

Not only do they contain sugar, but their extremely sticky texture makes it difficult to remove, even with proper brushing and flossing.
Over time, this will break down the tooth enamel and can cause unwanted and preventable cavities. Protect your children and chose another option for their vitamins!
