Tooth decay is one of the big reasons that affect digestion in a negative way. as your teeth are decayed the body secreats anti inflamatery substances to avoid the decay more and more while you this substances go down your stomach and the digestive system it irritate in somehow the digestion process and by time it gets worse.
One of the other things that teeth in body energy science are connected to a lot of main nerves every 2 opposite teeth are connected to a major nerve. so you find for example someone have problem with his colon (spasm....etc) due to a decayed or inflamed tooth.
Teeth affect a lot of organs in our body while we don't notice it and usually people with digestion problem often have teeth problems.

∙ 10y agoYes it can, if left untreated cavities can rot threw the enamel and into the pulp of the tooth(which has blood vessels and nerve endings attached to it). Cavities can actually rot down to the jaw bone in extreme cases. In cases this severe, its not unheard of for people to die of blood infects in such cases. In such cases a doctor would have to remove a section of the jaw, to save the persons life. Brush your teeth and go to the dentist regularly. I spent many years avoiding the dentist. Now I'm spending a lot of money and time in the dentist chair.

What is biological decay?
Decay involves change in a tissue of the carcasse of a dead organism wherein the complexity of once living tissue deteriorates to simpler and simpler material until the basic elements of which the tissue was formerly composed are returned to the soil in the case of decay of animal carcasses in the wild. The tissues move from a condition of low entropy to higher entropy. There can also be decay in the tissues of a living organism. An example would be decay in the teeth of humans. In this case, because acid accumulation resulting from bacterial metabolism erodes the hydroxyapatite and protein structure of which the tooth is composed fromis a result of inadequate dental hygeine coupled with the inherited propensity to developing decay (i.e., how hard the tooth enamel is). So in this case part of the tooth contains a cavity in which decay has produced dead tooth tissue and bacteria. In this case to prevent the decay from spreading to the rest of the tooth the cavity must be cleaned out (by drilling) and then filled with an inert, malleable material. For ideal results gold is used because it is both the most malleable metal it never corrodes and it's non toxic. The same situation obtains when a diabetic must sacrifice a limb because, for example, due to poor circulation, part of the limb has died (gangrene) and if that dead portion is not removed, the gangrene will spread to the rest of the body which means death. By dividing the healthy tissue from the deteriorated tissue that which is living and healthy is saved. Decay of the carcasses of wild animals is a spontaneous process which means it requires no input of energy to proceed.

Can tooth decay be genetic?
While it is not true that if your parents have a lot of decay, you will also have a lot of decay, it is true that there is a genetic predisposition to tooth decay. This simply means that you may have to work harder to maintain good oral hygiene to prevent tooth decay. Tooth decay is primarily a function of poor oral hygiene. Keep you mouth adequately clean, see your dentist and hygienist frequently, follow their advice, and you will likely experience less tooth decay.
