What Are Cavities?

What Are Cavities?

Cavities, also known as dental caries, represent one of the most widespread oral health concerns, forming when acids produced by bacteria erode the tooth enamel. This decay begins as small pits or holes on the tooth surface and can progress deeper if untreated, potentially leading to infections or tooth loss. Factors like poor oral hygiene, frequent sugar consumption, and dry mouth contribute to their development. Early detection through regular check-ups is essential for simple interventions. At Confident Beverly Hills, Dr. Liyan Massaband emphasizes proactive care to safeguard your natural smile from these common threats.

Common Causes of Cavities

Understanding the root causes of cavities empowers better prevention strategies.

Bacteria in Plaque

Bacteria in plaque thrive on sugars from food and drinks, releasing acids that weaken enamel over time.

Genetic Predispositions or Limited Saliva Flow

Genetic predispositions or limited saliva flow, which naturally neutralizes acids, can heighten vulnerability.

Children and Seniors

Children and seniors often face elevated risks due to dietary habits or medication side effects
