Pits and fissures and proximal surfaces are two aspects of oral hygiene that have been somewhat neglected by main stream advertising and technology development.

Almost all cavities occur where food is left trapped between teeth and inside grooves after every meal or snack and where sugars are changed to acid .

X-rays after chewing barium sulphate shows where food is trapped in grooves and helps early diagnosis of potential cavities. Supertooth Experiments use a glass model of a fissure in a tooth to demonstrate how food is trapped and removed by simulating chewing various types of food and fibre etc.

Chewing sealant foods like cheese before eating, blocks grooves and prevents food being trapped and changed to acid while eating meals or snacks.

Chewing fibre like celery string after eating, helps saliva remove food, neutralise acid and repair demineralised tooth where the brush cannot reach.

After 30 years of fluoride and oral hygiene, fissure sealants and avoiding sweets etc. particularly between meals are important preventive measures promoted by dentists, government health authorities and many commercial interests like Colgate, tooth decay has only been halved and a more convenient evidence based promotion of prevention in oral health like Supertooth and the Good Food Friends is needed. The ADA asserts that dental decay is the second most costly food related disease and  the most prevalent in the community.  Professor John Spencer, asks "Is caries re-surfacing?", in the Australian Dental Journal 2004;49:(2):98-100
