Tooth decay in Milton Keynes

What

Tooth decay/caries is when acids and sugars have started to dissolve the outer layers of the teeth. Dental Caries is still one of the most widespread health problems in the UK.

Signs

Tooth decay may not cause any symptoms until it has reached an advance stage. The dental team will be able to spot a cavity during an examination and with the use of X-rays. Smaller cavities require minimal treatment compared to cavities left to reach an advanced stage. This is why we recommend regular check ups to prevent invasive treatments.
