Reply:yes, if left untreated it can go to the other teeth.
Reply:I think that eventually it will
Reply:I think so...the acid-producing bacteria that cause damage will eventually spread to others tooth. It will get worse with the presence of fermentable carbohydrates, When the pH of your tooth drops below 5.5, you are ensuring decay.





Please brush your teeth daily...or you will regret.
Reply:not generally unless it goes into the bone, or if it is tight up against another tooth. but, there is something called transference, meaning if you have pain in one tooth, sometimes it can feel like it is in another tooth or both teeth.
