Tooth Decay

What is Tooth Decay?

Tooth decay is a condition in which the structure of a tooth is damaged by acids produced by bacteria in the mouth. These acids erode the enamel and dentin layers of the tooth. Initially, decay may appear as small spots on the enamel surface, but if left untreated, cavities can expand into the dentin and pulp, causing pain and impairing chewing function.

Symptoms of Tooth Decay

Brown, black, or white spots on teeth: Typically seen on chewing surfaces or between teeth.

Toothache and sensitivity: Pain is often triggered by sweet, hot, or cold foods and drinks.

Visible cavity or hole: Cavities may be noticeable visually or detected by the tongue.

Bad breath: Caused by bacteria and plaque buildup inside the cavity.

Swollen and inflamed gums: If decay reaches the pulp, it can cause gum inflammation and localized pain.

Causes of Tooth Decay

Improper oral hygiene: Inadequate removal of plaque and food particles allows bacteria to thrive.

Frequent consumption of sweets and starches: Sugars and starches left on the teeth promote plaque formation.

High-acid foods: Acidic foods weaken enamel, making teeth more susceptible to damage.

Tobacco use: Smoking impairs the teeth’s natural defenses and negatively affects oral health.
