Not only because of calcium deficiency caused by dental caries

The general understanding, we can say, because poor dental mineralization easy caries, and calcium deficiency can affect the teeth mineralization, but this is a general concept that is not exact, or say exactly right, because the teeth mineralization has some of the timing and conditions. Ignore these factors, we can not achieve their goals.

On the one hand, it only applies during tooth development, tooth development stage, such as food in calcium, will affect their mineralization, serious cases may result in Dental Equipment enamel hypoplasia, and in tooth development is completed, that is no effect.

On the other hand, is more important, should see the teeth of the mineralization is a complex process, in addition to calcium, it also must have a close collaboration with other substances, mainly phosphorus and vitamin D, these three substances is the normal tooth mineral of the foundation.

Animal experiments indicate that the lack of calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D than those of animals suffering from severe caries, particularly among those most severely phosphorus deficiency, indicating that mineralization of the teeth is not just the role of calcium, but also not a simple increase in supply can be achieved by The purpose of mineralization strengthen teeth, each other must also be noted, first, calcium, phosphorus ratio must be between the appropriate, in order to facilitate its absorption, such as the development of mid-term phosphorus deficiency, despite adequate supply of calcium, the mineral of the teeth of no help, or when the supply of phosphorus, and calcium in quantity but less than a certain percentage, will also affect the mineralization of the tooth to its normal capacity of anti-caries.

So caries because calcium is not comprehensive.
