A method for reducing dental plaque and infections of the teeth, gums, and mouth, the present invention essentially comprises application of an effective amount of n-undecylenic acid or an effective substitute therefor according to the invention to the teeth, gums and mouth. The effective ingredient employed according to the method of the invention can either be applied directly to the teeth and tissues in a substantially inert carrier such as in a dentifrice paste for personal oral use or can be applied directly by a dental practitioner. Practice of the present method improves the condition of the gums and other tissues of the mouth, acts to prevent yeast and other infections, reduces the incidence of tooth decay caused by parasitic bacteria, reduces the bacteria count in the mouth to provide a more hygienic oral environment, substantially reduces plaque formation present on the teeth prior to treatment according to the invention, and essentially acts to prevent new plaque from forming on the teeth with continued treatment.
