Good day world,

Today we will be discussing a condition where multiple teeth in a child's mouth are broken down due to decay .

First off,caries refers to a biological disease of the teeth that results in the destruction of tooth tissue usually due to the activity of bacteria on sugar from our diet.

Rampant caries is a condition where this condition affects teeth that usually are not prone to decay(such as the anterior teeth)

It has been known to affect;toddlers,children and teenagers alike

Things to note:

-make infants and children drink water after feeding

-endeavour to clean their teeth epecially at night before they go to bed

-check their teeth regularly and at the sign of decay (usually a chalky white,brown or black cavity or depression on the teeth),go to see a dentist .

Stay healthy!!
