A recent research revealed that 7 out of 10 children in India suffer from cavities. It is the number one oral care problem that consumers face in India today. The key reason for prevalence of cavities is the changing food habits. We now have a solution to this biggest problem in oral care, with Colgate Maximum Cavity Protection Plus Sugar Acid Neutralizer.”

It neutralises the harmful sugar acids, the main cause of cavity formation, while making teeth stronger with fluoride. Various long term clinical studies have been conducted to prove anti-cavity benefits of this technology.”
