👉 Sapophoric is a term used in dentistry to describe a type of tooth enamel that has been modified by the action of acids. It is also sometimes referred to as a "saccharic" or "acidic" layer on the surface of the teeth, which can cause sensitivity and discomfort when brushing or flossing. In some cases, this modification may result in the formation of tartar deposits that can lead to gum disease if left untreated.
