Take a journey inside your mouth to see all the important players that protect your teeth from cavities and what happens if you do get a cavity. Cartoon illustrations combined with photomicrographs allow readers to see this process up close, including what plaque, red blood cells, nerve cells, and odontoblasts look like under a microscope. Includes a glossary and resources for further reading at the end.
