Dental caries: what are they?

Dental caries, ( from Latin caries, “corrosion, putrefaction”) is one of the most prevalent and common degenerative diseases in dentistry. This is a degenerative process that damages the hard tissues of the tooth (enamel and dentin) and is caused by bacteria in the oral cavity that take refuge in plaque and tartar within the dental arch. The teeth most affected by caries are usually the molars, premolars, and upper incisors.
