While all cavities occur from acid demineralisation where food is left on teeth under chewing pressure displacing previously trapped food.

While most food is noticed trapped between teeth, over 80% of cavities occur inside pits and fissures on chewing surfaces where brushing, fluoride toothpaste and saliva have no access to neutralise acid and remineralise tooth.

With other oral health care, forcing toothpaste inside pits and fissures under chewing pressure before brushing greatly increases remineralisation and could prevent tooth decay. See supertoothndk.org
