No part of "tooth decay" is a structure or function.
caries in the dental field is part of tooth decay that consists of the decalcification of the enamel of the tooth. In other words this is considered tooth decay.
Your teeth are part of your digestive system. Tooth decay weakens a tooth and affects the way a person bites and chews food.
It is the enamel, usually. There could be dentin exposed if there is decay.
Tooth decay is generally not cured. Usually it is removed along with part of the tooth. In this case the 'cure' is a filling that may take 20 minutes or a crown that make take 2 weeks.
The hard part of the tooth is actually not a living structure. The living structures are the nerves and blood vessels that are inside the tooth.
Fluoride strengthens the enamel of the tooth, which is the outermost layer that helps protect it from decay and acid erosion.
Decay (a rotten tooth, caused by insufficient cleaning), or perhaps a part of the tooth has chipped off. Go to a dentist, who will probably give you a filling.

It's function :)
The solution for a hole inside the tooth, also known as a cavity, is typically a dental filling. This involves removing the decayed part of the tooth and filling the space with a material such as composite resin or amalgam to restore the tooth's structure and function. It is important to address cavities promptly to prevent further damage and potential infection.
Dental decay or cavity or caries occurs when the bacteria found in the mouth releases acid. This acid breaks down the crystals of the enamel...the outermost and hardest part of the tooth.
