What happens if a tooth decay with one third is of the surface is gone, is there any health risk/side effects?

Yes, one morning when you least expect it you will be woken up by a terrible tooth ache. You might even get an abcess with facial swelling. Right now, before that morning comes, see a dentist and have the tooth repaired. It might take a root canal and crown to make things right again, but it's worth it. And a root canal is not that bad. They numb you good and the only bad thing is you have to keep your mouth open for a relatively long time.

go and see a dentist, if you have tooth decay it is likely to move onto other teeth
Reply:Yes ,it could of course cause infection,ulceration of the gum area.There is also a link between heart disease and dental disease so it is worth getting it taken care of as soon as possible. It could poison your whole system.
Reply:Your dentist will do a root canal treatment and put a cap over the lost tooth. Go get it done Asap to avoid complete extraction of the tooth.
Reply:Yes.... even if you brush everyday some ppl are predisposed to having bad teeth from their genetics..





if one of your teeth went bad, odds are, there will be more to follow.





Go to the dentist before you need dentures hun!
Reply:It really depends on how deep the tooth decay extends. If the nerve is not included, then you are lucky because a simple tooth restoration is all you need. The dentist just have to remove the decay and place a tooth filling in it. BUT if the nerve is involved, then, a root canal treatment is needed.


Any health risk/side effects....the fact that you have a tooth decay, that means there are bad bacterias in your mouth. One effect of having tooth decay is having a bad breath. Other effects would be possible inflammation of the tooth and the surrounding tissues. And if you have a rheumatic heart disease, the bacteria might go to your heart which could lead to your death. Bottom line: go to your dentist as soon as you have the time and have it fixed.
