There are three layers of the tooth:
If a cavity is detected in the enamel or dentin layer, a simple filling is usually enough to repair it.
However, if left untreated, the decay can reach the nerve tissue—the deepest part of the tooth. At that point, a root canal is necessary to save the tooth. If still untreated, the infection can spread into the bloodstream, potentially making your child very sick.
If you have a cavity that has reached the nerve tissue, you may experience some or all of the following symptoms:
Cavities (dental caries) are permanent holes in the teeth caused by the buildup of plaque—bacteria that feed on sugars and produce acid that weakens enamel.
| Habit | Frequency | Why It Works |
|---|---|---|
| Brush teeth | 2× daily | Removes plaque and food particles |
| Use fluoride toothpaste | Every brushing | Strengthens enamel and reverses early decay |
| Floss | 1× daily | Cleans between teeth where brush can’t reach |
| Rinse with fluoride | 1× daily | Extra protection from cavities |
| Drink water after meals | Every meal | Washes away acids and sugars |
| Category | Examples | Why Avoid |
|---|---|---|
| Sugary drinks | Soda, juice, energy drinks | Feed cavity-causing bacteria |
| Sticky snacks | Gummy candies, dried fruits | Cling to teeth, hard to brush off |
| Starchy carbs | Crackers, white bread | Break down into sugars |
| Type | Examples | Oral Health Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Fiber-rich | Apples, celery, leafy greens | Scrub teeth naturally, increase saliva |
| Calcium-rich | Milk, cheese, almonds | Strengthens enamel |
| Water-rich | Cucumbers, melons, water | Help rinse mouth naturally |
| Sugar-free gum | Xylitol gum | Boosts saliva, neutralizes acid |
| Tool | Use |
|---|---|
| Plaque disclosing tablets | Show missed spots when brushing |
| Electric toothbrush | Removes more plaque with less effort |
| Timer or brushing app | Ensures full 2-minute sessions |
Serving the following counties: Clear Creek, Eagle, Gunnison, Lake, Pitkin and Summit.
