| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| deals with physical, chemical and biological processes that develop and renew tissues of the body by absorption and assimilation of food materials. | NUTRITION |
| Trivia: Oral soft tissues have a rapid turnover time of ___to __ than other body tissues | 3 to 7 days |
| nutrients are those NESCESSARY for body function. They cannot be synthesized by the human body, at least not in sufficient amounts for normal functioning, so these nutrients are derived from food. | THE ESSENTIALS |
| All dietary carbohydrates are considered nonessential, except for | DIETARY FIBER |
| necessary for digestive process, maintains body pH, sustenance of BODY FLUID | WATER |
| building block for muscles, BONES AND TEETH | MINERALS |
| regulates and maintains the IMMUNE SYSTEM | VITAMINS |
| – source of energy, TEMPERATURE REGULATION , cell repair | FATS |

| are a family of organic compounds that are mostly insoluble in water. Composed of fats and oils, lipids are molecules that yield high energy and have a chemical composition mainly of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. | LIPIDS |
| make up more than 95-98% of lipids in the diet and are commonly found in fried foods, vegetable oil, butter, whole milk, cheese, cream cheese, and some meats. | TRIGLYCERIDES |
| The most common MUFA found in foods in | OLEIC ACID |
| are found primarily in animal products (beef, chicken, pork, dairy products) and certain vegetable products (palm, palm kernel, cotton seed and coconut oil). | SATURATED FATTY ACIDS |

| – Bacteria that have the capability of producing acids through their metabolic pathways. In reference to dental caries, the main acidogenic or acid-producing species of bacteria is Streptococcus mutans. | Acidogenic bacteria |
| Saliva and the fluid in dental plaque possess the ability to buffer. Buffering adjusts the pH of any solution such as saliva or plaque fluid, and can resist changes in pH. Buffering capacity is the degree of buffering that can be brought about. | Buffering capacity |
| The ability to cause dental caries. A cariogenic diet contains sugars. Some bacteria in dental plaque (S. mutans) are cariogenic. | Cariogenic |
| – The interval of time necessary for any substance to be cleared from the mouth by the process of salivary secretion and saliva flow. | Clearance time |
| The pH at and below which demineralization of enamel occurs. The research of Stephan and Miller originally demonstrated this critical pH to be approximately 5.5 (see Stephan’s curve). | Critical pH |
| The chemical process by which minerals (mainly calcium) are removed from the dental hard tissues – enamel, dentin, and cementum. | Demineralization |
| An organized community of many different microorganisms that forms itself into a biofilm and is found on the surface of the tongue and all hard surfaces in the oral cavity. | Dental plaque |
| Nearly all carbohydrates in the diet are can be broken down and metabolized by microorganisms. | Fermentable carbohydrates |
| The chemical process by which minerals (mainly calcium) are replaced into the substance of the dental hard tissues - enamel, dentin and cementum. | Remineralization |
