What causes cavities?
It is a normal thing to have bacteria in your mouths. Most of the bacteria in your mouth is not bad, and might actually be helpful. Some of the bacteria in our mouths is not good.
Certain types of bacteria cling themselves to the enamel that covers our teeth. If they are not removed, they multiply like crazy until a whole bunch of them are there. This is what forms plaque on teeth which causes cavities to form if it is not removed.
A drop of water freezes onto a particle of pollen or dust in the sky. This is what creates an ice crystal. The water molecules arrange themselves into predetermined spaces. This forms a six-sided snowflake.Temperature at which the crystal forms determines the shape. Warmer temperatures make the snowflakes lacier, while colder temperatures make them denser.

Why can't most dogs eat chocolate?
Chocolate has a high fat content and two substances that invigorate which are, caffeine and theobromine. These stimulants can cause damage to the nervous system and the heart muscle. They can also cause more frequency to urination. If your dog only gets a hold of a chocolate chip cookie or a single piece of chocolate, he or she will be okay. I would be very worried if he or she got a whole chocolate cake or a whole batch of brownies. This may cause diarrhea or vomiting.
