Why do teeth get infected? Take care to prevent this problem from occurring

Tooth decay is a disease caused by bacteria in the mouth. Bacteria in the mouth process the sugars in the food particles left on the teeth to produce acid, which begins to dissolve the enamel on the surface of the teeth. This process continues slowly but continuously. More food particles get trapped in the holes left in this coating. More and more bacteria continue the acid attack. The hole continues to grow. The tooth's surface is eroded, and then the tooth has a large pit. That is called a cavity. It is best to have this cavity filled by a dentist when it is still small in size. Once a tooth has a cavity, it cannot heal itself. Because the donor has no reproductive capacity. But because the tooth does not hurt, it is often ignore.

By breaking through the surface of the tooth, the bacteria enter the second layer of the tooth called dentin. This is where the toothache begins. When drinking cold water, it starts throbbing in the teeth. Eating sweets causes pain for a while, but it eventually stops.This is the perfect time to have silver or composite (tooth-colored cement) fillings in the teeth. However, if left untreated, the bacteria can travel to the root of the tooth and cause excruciating pain. In such cases, a root canal treatment is advised by the dentist. Tooth extraction is the last treatment. Tooth extraction is not considered until all measures to save the tooth have failed, in the opinion of the dentist.

Everyone needs to take some care in their daily life to avoid tooth decay. These include reducing the amount of sugar in the diet, brushing the teeth twice a day, using antibacterial mouthwashes such as mouthwash, using fluoride toothpaste and gels, consuming fibrous foods, biting food after swallowing, keeping the surface of the teeth shiny, filling cavities, it is important to have a complete dental check-up by your dentist once every six months. We Can't kill bacteria in the mouth, because even a healthy mouth contains bacteria. However, we can slightly strengthen the surface of the tooth with the use of fluoride paste so that it does not get caries as easily or can reverse the process of caries in its early stages.

Many people wonder if tooth decay is hereditary. The answer is that ) tooth decay is not hereditary. However, the habits that increase the incidence of pests are common in the family, for example, eating a lot of sweets, ice cream, or drinking cold drinks before going to bed without brushing your teeth. Such bad habits increase the chances of tooth decay. These habits may be shared by many in the family, so these habits need to be changed. If changes are not made in time, the chances of dental caries remain in the next generation as well.
