Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The pH at and below which tooth decay process of enamel occurs. The Stephan’s curve demonstrates what happens to saliva pH balance with frequent intake of foods. After exposure of dental plaque to fermentable carbohydrates the pH significantly decreases. This is due primarily to the production of lactic acid in plaque, with acetic and propionic acids being simultaneously lost from the plaque. |
