Dental Caries.
Explanation:
- Dental Caries or tooth decay is described as the malfunctioning or damage of teeth due to the acids produced by bacterias.
- These acids attack the enamel of the tooth which eventually leads to the development of a hole in a tooth known as the cavity.
- This problem is often seen in children, adults, and teenagers. This may lead to infection, serious toothache, or tooth loss as well.
- Thus, it needs to be treated well in time by consulting a dentist in order to avoid any complications.
- It can be avoided too by following proper dental hygiene including brushing teeth twice a day, cleaning of mouth after eating, etc.
