Simple way to clean black plaque on children's teeth

Black plaque usually appears on the crown and around the neck of the baby's teeth, and can be easily recognized by the naked eye. However, in some cases, they also accumulate below the gums. Black plaque is formed when food debris combines with inorganic salts such as calcium carbonate-phosphate and minerals in the oral cavity, or is caused by serum deposition.

Therefore, when seeing black plaque on children's teeth, parents need to find a way to remove it and pay attention to hygiene and oral care for their children.
