The cavity present in a tooth is called dental caries or tooth decay. It occurs when the hard surface of the tooth is damaged by acids produced by bacteria that feed on sugars and starches in the mouth. If left untreated, cavities can lead to pain, infection, and even tooth loss. Regular dental hygiene practices can help prevent the formation of cavities.
