- Abstract
The genetics of dental caries is a little studied topic, although dental caries are the most common pathology in the oro-maxilo-facial sphere, among the population.Dental caries are a chronic destructive process of harsh, non-inflammatory tooth tissues that produce necrosis and their destruction, followed by coronary or root cavity. The process of tooth decay is closely related to the salivary environment, therefore caries do not appear on fully inserted teeth or teeth completely isolated from the mouth.Progression of dental caries is achieved by the acid produced by bacterial action on fermentable carbohydrates that diffuses into the tooth and produces demineralization. The primary prevention approach should be based on common risk factors. Secondary prevention and treatment should focus on time management for individual patients with a minimally invasive, tissue- retaining approach.
