Can cavities affect general health and other parts of the body? While in adults it is periodontal disease the main cause of tooth loss, in children and young people is cavities. For that reason, trying to prevent its occurrence is an essential part of maintaining an adequate oral health. 3D video of Clinica Médico Dental Pardiñas (http://j.mp/cPardinas) about the progression of cavities and its influence on health.

Tooth decay is an infectious disease caused by bacteria that exist in the mouth. When we consume sugary products or carbs, these bacteria produce acids capable to destroying tooth enamel. Once decay penetrates the enamel, its progress is unstoppable because dentin, the structure that is under the enamel, is much more weak. If it is not stopped in time, tooth decay can invade the pulp (nerve) causing the typical toothache.  If this occurs, it would be necessary to perform a root canal treatment or even removing the tooth if it is very affected. Bacteria can also migrate into the bloodstream and cause an infection elsewhere in the body.

Causes that favors the development of tooth decay:
There are several causes that can cause the development of cavities. Knowing the causes can help to prevent them.

1. Enamel quality:
Tooth enamel is the hardest structure in the human body, even more than bone. However, the quality of the enamel is not the same in everybody, so the genetics of each one will determine the resistance to caries attack.

2. Dental plaque:
Dental plaque is the yellowish-white layer that is deposited on the teeth when they are not properly brushed. This plaque is made up of bacteria, cell debris from the mouth and food waste. If this remains a long time on the teeth surface, it can end up damaging the enamel.

3. Cariogenic foods:
Food is a third fundamental factor in the development of caries. Sweet and sticky foods are ideal for fattening those bacteria, since carbohydrates are the fundamental basis in their diet. Cariogenic foods include chocolate, cookies, pastries, sweets and certain fruits and soft drinks.
