We have a lot of bacteria in our mouth. With mucus and several small particles, such bacteria make a colorless, sticky ‘plaque’ constantly on teeth. Plaque can be cleaned with flossing and brushing. If not removed, that plaque gets harden and create the harbor of the bacteria “tarter” which cannot be cleaned by brushing. Only hygienist or dentist is capable to clean tarter.
