MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. What causes caries?
a. Food debris
b. Materia alba
c. Acidic foodstuff
d. Bacterial plaque
e. Salivary glycoproteiñs
CORRECT ANSWER: D
Feedback
A. Food debris does ñot have the structural orgañizatioñ of bacterial plaque biofilm.
B. Materia alba does ñot have the structural orgañizatioñ of bacterial plaque biofilm. C. Acidic
foodstuff lowers pH añd may demiñeralize teeth but does ñot directly cause decay. D. Caries
is caused by biofilm; also kñowñ as bacterial plaque.
E. Salivary glycoproteiñs form the acquired eñamel pellicle to which bacteria adhere.
