What are the different kinds of teeth cavities?
A tooth has many surfaces and some people describe the decay by where it is on the tooth. The cavities the dentist can see by a clinical exam are on the chewing surfaces of the teeth and on the gumline area. There are some tooth decay cavities that are formed between the teeth due to lack of flossing. For these cavities, the dentist must take an x-ray to find them. You cannot see them by looking or feeling with the "pick". Another type of tooth decay is something that happens to an injured tooth called "internal resorption". The dentist also needs to take an x-ray to find this, unless the decay eats it way out of the tooth and shows at the gumline.
How is tooth decay a chemical reaction?
Tooth decay is a chemical reaction that occurs when acids produced by bacteria in the mouth (like Streptococcus mutans) break down the enamel and dentin of the teeth. These acids demineralize the hard tissues of the teeth, leading to the formation of cavities. The reaction involves the dissolution of calcium and phosphate minerals from the tooth structure by the acids.

Is a cavity a physical change?

What are consequences of getting your root canal therapy?
If your tooth needs a root canal and is not painful, then it must be a dead tooth. When a tooth is dead, it is a source of infection which is not good. It is possible that it could hurt in the future due to infection. Better to have the root canal done, because you're trying to save your tooth. If you don't have the root canal treatment done and your tooth continues to decay, the dentist might have to pull that tooth out in the future. Once you pull out your tooth, that's gone forever
Can white strips cure a dead tooth?
No, whitening strips cannot cure a dead tooth. A dead tooth, which is typically non-vital due to nerve damage or decay, requires professional dental treatment such as a root canal or extraction. Whitening strips only address surface stains and do not affect the underlying causes of tooth discoloration. For a dead tooth, it's essential to consult a dentist for appropriate care.
