Caries can cause serious harm to the immune system and threatens with damage to internal organs, up to death. About it “Gazete.Ru” said dentist-therapist Artur Tumashevich.
According to the specialist, this destructive process leads to nerve damage. The tooth begins to react to cold and hot, there is discomfort when biting and night pain. Sometimes this results in periodontitis, when the nerve is affected, the infection goes to the top of the root, the bone structure around suffers from this, cysts and granulomas develop.
“But this and other similar lesions are not the worst, because the immune system of the body suffers along with them. This is a dangerous manifestation, for example, of a disease such as bacterial endocarditis. And this is a heartbreak. Therefore, if you start the infection, it will go further to the internal organs, and this threatens with consequences up to death, ”commented the dentist.
The doctor clarified that periostitis, osteomyelitis, inflammation of the periosteum and the entire bone are also the worst complications. “Such lesions can flow into phlegmon or infectious inflammation of the tissues of the oral cavity. Wounds in such cases are drained, pus flows out. Most often, this is inpatient treatment with antibiotics under the supervision of specialists and intensive recovery. After all, intoxication of the body occurs, the blood and internal organs suffer, ”Tumashevich emphasized.
The expert recommends not delaying caries and starting treatment as early as possible. To keep your teeth healthy, you need to go to check-ups on time.
