Are Cavities Contagious? ?? You might be surprised to learn that the bacteria that cause cavities are contagious. The culprit? Streptococcus mutans, is a type of bacteria that thrives in an acidic environment (often caused by the foods we eat). These bacteria can be transferred through saliva, making it easier than you think to spread cavities. Here’s how it works: - Sharing food or drinks ?? - Kissing (yes, it’s possible to transfer bacteria through saliva!) ?? - Sharing eating utensils or straws ?? Protect your smile: Boost your dental hygiene routine and take preventative measures to minimize the spread of cavity-causing bacteria. Want to learn more about how to protect your teeth and avoid spreading cavities?
