Is the occurrence of dental caries in the hard tissue on a devastating disease. Referring to the devastating diseases of the teeth enamel, dentin or cementum on the first occurrence of decalcification or decomposition of organic matter. Demineralized teeth of the clinical manifestations of chalk to change color, also known as white spot caries. In the scanning electron microscope to see a white spot caries of the Department of demineralized enamel center column. Chemical study by the organization shows that the glaze contains a column interstitial mucopolysaccharide category, as well as decomposition. In the electron microscope can be observed under the glaze stromal loss column. So that the enamel lesions more than the ability to reduce the resistance, and often occurred in areas of dental caries plaque tissue defect. Severe dental tissue defects in the formation of bad teeth. As a result, the danger of the caries:
(1) often caused by sharp teeth, and other parts of the inflammation, swelling and severe local time; such as the pus and bacteria have been absorbed, which can cause bacteremia, or sepsis. (2) bad teeth can not chew food; add to the burden of the gastrointestinal tract.
(3) For children, bad food inhibit not only chewing the root, hinder digestion and absorption of nutrition, at the same time so that the jaw can be affected by the growth and development. Because chewing can stimulate the growth of the jaw, and the bad teeth to chew the force has been falling, it is clear that stimulate the growth of the role of the jaw is extremely weak.
(4) for the elderly, can cause severe caries most or all of the missing tooth loss, increased the burden on the elderly stomach is not conducive to the health of the elderly.
