Tooth decay can lead to pain, tooth loss, infection and in extreme cases seriously compromise people's health. Tooth decay (also known as dental cavities or dental caries) is a disease caused by bacteria that progressively breaks down tooth enamel. Excessive sugar consumption, tobacco use, and insufficient oral hygiene are know to promote tooth decay, but certain health conditions and even genetic factors can cause a vulnerability to this disease.
