That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Raisins are most likely to cause dental caries if the teeth are not brushed. Raisins are sticky and high in sugar content, which can adhere to the teeth and provide a breeding ground for bacteria. Bacteria in the mouth feed on the sugar from the raisins and produce acids that can erode the tooth enamel, leading to the development of dental caries. Regular brushing helps remove the sticky residue and prevents the buildup of bacteria, reducing the risk of dental caries.
