Causes of #ToothDecay and foods that can help prevent it | The Food Glossary

Partially impacted wisdom teeth appear to be at higher risk of tooth decay (caries) than other teeth. This probably occurs because wisdom teeth are harder to clean and because food and bacteria get easily trapped between the gum and a partially erupted tooth. In this case, the lower right decayed wisdom tooth was removed due to deep caries caused by recurrent food trapped every after meals and patient couldn’t bare with the on and off toothache over time. #wisdomtoothremoval #ismile #dentalclini

🔜Can a SMALL DECAY BE a BIG PROBLEM? When the decay goes in a small little hole in a tooth, it's going to spread 🕳🦠 You can prevent the decay from getting bigger. How? 🤔 Well, when you come to the dentist, we clean with some chemicals to make sure there's no decay. After disinfecting, we filled it, and it looked pretty cool, almost like nothing had happened 💪🦷 👉That's why visiting your dentist every 3 to 6 months is important to catch the tiny decay and leave it all good again 👈 #holisti
