hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii,

The first indication of tooth decay are white spots on the enamel caused by the loss of calcium. Acids have started to dissolve and weaken the tooth enamel (demineralization). At this stage the tooth can remineralize and fix the weakened area itself with the help of minerals in saliva and fluoride.     pictures of tooth decay - stage2
If the demineralisation process outruns the natural remineralisation process, the lesion grows. Over time, the tooth enamel begins to break down beneath the surface while the surface remains intact.
Once the decay continues and breaks through the surface of the enamel, the damage is permanent.

Left untreated, the decay will continue to dentine. When enough of the sub-surface enamel is eaten away, the surface collapses, forming a cavity. The decay must be cleaned out and the cavity filled by a dentist.
