Dental Caries Tooth Decay

About Dental Caries Tooth Decay

Cavities that keep coming back bring a lot of people to DrTalks, including parents worried about their kids' teeth. Tooth decay despite brushing, bad teeth that seem to run in the family, decisions about root canals, fillings or implants, tongue and lip ties, and mouth breathing or snoring are all things these experts see every day. These talks also go past the dentist's chair. Tooth decay is tied to your oral microbiome, nutrition and minerals, airway and jaw development, blood sugar, and what's in your water. You'll find conversations on what really causes cavities, whether teeth can remineralize, debates over fluoride, amalgam fillings and root canals, and how diets and medications like Ozempic affect your teeth. Dentists, biological dentists and doctors explain what's actually going on, which tests are worth asking your provider about, from dental imaging to sleep studies, and what helps, from better oral hygiene and tooth-friendly foods to minerals, ozone therapy and oral probiotics.
