How to prevent rotten teeth effectively? Rotten teeth, often caused by severe tooth decay, are not only painful but also dangerous for your overall health. Untreated, they can spread infection, cause tooth loss, and lead to expensive dental work. Fortunately, most cases can be prevented with consistent care and the right tools. In this article, we’ll explore the main causes, symptoms, and risks of rotten teeth—and explain how BrushO’s Smart Electric Toothbrush, with its powerful cleaning technology, hygienic design, quality brush heads, and smart pressure sensor, makes prevention simple and effective.

What Are Rotten Teeth? 

Rotten teeth are teeth damaged by advanced decay. They may appear dark, brittle, or broken, and often cause pain or bad breath. Unlike early-stage cavities, rotten teeth typically require more serious treatment, from fillings to root canals or even extractions.

Main Causes of Rotten Teeth

• Poor oral hygiene: Infrequent brushing and flossing allow plaque and bacteria to thrive.
• Sugary diet: Excess sugar and acid erode tooth enamel.
• Dry mouth: Less saliva means less natural defense against bacteria.
• Neglected dental visits: Small issues go unnoticed until they worsen.
• Improper brushing technique: Missing areas or brushing ineffectively leaves bacteria behind.

Symptoms You Shouldn’t Ignore

• Persistent toothache or sensitivity
• Visible holes, cracks, or dark spots
• Swollen gums or bleeding near decayed teeth
• Chronic bad breath
• Food is getting stuck repeatedly in the same place

Risks of Untreated Rotten Teeth

• Infections spreading to the gums or the jawbone
• Tooth loss, makes chewing more difficult
• Higher dental costs: fillings, root canals, or implants
• Systemic health issues: links to heart disease and diabetes

Daily Prevention Habits

• Brush twice daily with a high-quality toothbrush
• Replace brush heads every 3 months
• Floss daily to clean between teeth
• Limit sugary and acidic foods and drinks
• Drink plenty of water to keep the saliva flow healthy
• Visit your dentist every 6 months for checkups
