What causes tooth rot?
Tooth decay (dental caries) is caused by bacteria in plaque on your teeth. When you eat sugars (fermentable carbohydrates) the bacteria process it, and release their by product of lactic acid which eats away at the tooth. Eventually, this can cause the surface to "cavitate" (makes a hole in the tooth), which would require a filling to restore. To prevent decay: 1) brush and floss - (get rid of the bacteria/plaque) 2) avoid or reduce sugars - (they can't produce the acid without the sugar) 3) make the tooth more resistant - (use fluoride, sealant in any grooves likely to develop decay)

How are caries treated?
Caries (tooth decay) may be treated several ways, depending on where the decay is located, how extensive the decay is, and whether the tooth is considered 'important' to the patient's quality of life. 1. Small cavity, permanent tooth: Decay is removed, the cavity is shaped, and a plastic or silver material is used to 'fill' the cavity. 2. Large cavity, permanent tooth: The decay is removed, the remaining tooth is 'built up' with a plastic material, this is prepped , and a permanent crown is seated on the tooth. 3. Deep decay, permanent tooth: Same as #2, only a root canal procedure is also performed because the decay has reached the nerve of the tooth. 4. Baby teeth: Similar to 1-3 above, but it depends on how long the tooth is expected to remain in the mouth, importance to chewing, cosmetics, etc.
