Enhancing natural sweetness

A METHOD called plaque-pH telemetry determines scientifically whether an ingredient or food is harmful to tooth substance and enamel. In this process, a device with a glass electrode is placed in the space of a missing tooth for a few days until its pH-sensitive membrane is completely coated in bacterial plaque. With this method, any change in the pH value during food consumption and immediately afterwards can be measured directly within the plaque, i.e., as if on the surface of the tooth.
