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.
