Disclosing tablets for dental plaque
Chewing disclosing tablets stains the plaque on your teeth. The stain lets you see how well you are brushing and flossing your teeth. Dental plaque is a film of bacteria that sticks to your teeth, the spaces between the teeth, and under your gums. Plaque can harden into tartar.
