a cavity
well really if you floss ,brush your teeth at least twice a day and go to your dentists regular then you wouldn't have tooth decay
A teeth laser is the modern way that dentists use to examine the mouth for tooth decay. The laser is placed in the mouth and waves from it are measured against normal tooth waves. Any abnormalties are tooth decay.
dental caries.. at least that's what MDs would call it. There may be more variation in degree of decay that DMDs would refer to.
Dentists remove tooth decay by simply drilling the part of the tooth that has decayed and filling the hole with a "cement", followed by a sealant to prevent bacteria from getting in and causing more decay. If you have a cavity that if farther below the surface of the tooth, they will begin by adding local numbing gel and an anesthetic injection. Surface cavities usually do not require anesthetics and will take about 20-30 minutes to complete the procedure. If bacteria has rotted most of the tooth, it will require removal or a root canal.
Most qualified dentists will offer tooth implant services. This is a standard (albeit painful) procedure that dentists will offer.
A cavity is a decayed part of a tooth. A cavity can be caused by decay plaque, sugar and acid. Dentists fix cavities by drilling them.
the dentist removes the decayed portion of the tooth using a high-speed drill or an air abrasion system, shapes the cavity walls, and replaces the tooth structure with a filling of silver amalgam, composite resin, or gold.

Dental Caries is the scientific name for 'tooth decay.'
which element present in our toothpaste protects out tooth from the tooth decay?
I think cavities..
Tooth decay is the process that results in a cavity (dental caries). It occurs when bacteria in your mouth make acids that eat away at a tooth. If not treated, tooth decay can cause pain, infection, and tooth loss. The mixture of bacteria and acids make a sticky substance called plaque which if not treated, can cause your tooth to rot or turn into a yellowish colour.
