  1. Reasons for Tooth Decay in Adults and its Treatments

  2. There is no one reason for tooth decay in adults. • It is a long process, which happens over time when there is no proper care or a good oral hygiene routine in perspective. • Dentzz review says that while cavities are treatable, many times, if proper care is not taken, it may lead to several complications in the mouth.

  3. So what exactly causes cavities? • Cavities or tooth decay is caused when carbs in food such as bread, candy, cereal, fruit, cake, etc. stay on your teeth. • The bacteria in your mouth turn them into acids. • The bacteria, acid, food debris, and your saliva combine to form plaque, which clings to the teeth. • Slowly the acids in the plaque or the tartar start eroding the outer enamel of your teeth. • Your teeth become porous and this is what leads to bleeding gums and pain.

  4. One of the main myths today is that only children can get cavities, but that is not the case. • It is not necessarily children who get cavities. • Anyone can get cavities irrespective of their age, if they do not have a good oral care routine. • Therefore it becomes important for children as well as adults to have a proper oral care regime that is followed thoroughly. • The basics of brushing and flossing daily are imperative.

  5. Cavity treatments usually depend on how serious the condition is. • There are different stages of cavities and each stage will require the patient to undergo a different type of treatment. • The most common treatment for this is fillings. • Dentzz review will tell you how dentists will remove the decayed portion of your teeth, scoop it out and clean the area. • Then they will fill the hole or the gap with a sturdy and hard material, which will keep your teeth intact.

  6. Crowns, root canal, and fillings are three very basic treatments. • In crowns, if the tooth is a total lost cause, then a different tooth is placed in its place. • If there is partial decay then the dentist will clean it up and use a teeth shaped crown on top of it to give your teeth a finished look. • In root canal, they will remove the decayed part and clean the wound. • Then they either put a hollow tooth made with different materials on top of the new one to ensure a proper look and feel. • Today there are many ways or treatments to get rid of cavities, Source article : Dentzz Review blog
