Is tooth decay a worm

First, insect teeth are the weak parts of the teeth eroded by bacteria in the oral cavity, resulting in cavities on the surface of the teeth, and then eating sweet food is sour and painful; until the teeth are "inflamed", showing severe pain.

Second, dental caries is commonly known as "insect tooth". Caries is a common dental disease. "Worm tooth" does not have "worm". However, there are many people who lack oral knowledge and suffer from dental caries. They have a big hole in their teeth and mistakenly think it is moth eaten. Therefore, they have the name of "moth tooth" or "tooth decay" for dental caries.

Third: dental caries is not caused by insects, but by some bacteria (mainly Streptococcus mutans, followed by Lactobacillus). These bacteria can ferment sugars in the mouth to produce acid. This acidic substance can demineralize the teeth, destroy the only organic matter in the teeth, and finally form a hole in the teeth.

I also want to emphasize: the key points of correct brushing are: the bristles are about 45 degrees from the tooth surface, and brush vertically along the gap between the teeth. The upper teeth go down, the lower teeth go up, brush back in front of the bite. Instead of a saw like brush, it can damage teeth and gums. Brush your teeth for 3 minutes each time, once in the morning and once in the evening.
