An untreated cavity can lead to a tooth abscess. Untreated tooth decay also destroys the inside of the tooth (pulp), which leads to tooth loss. Carbohydrates (sugars and starches) increase the risk of tooth decay. Sticky foods are more harmful than non-sticky foods because they remain on the teeth.
If your tooth decay continues without treatment, the pulp, or inside, of your teeth may be affected. The pulp of your teeth houses blood vessels and nerves. When decay spreads to the pulp, it can cause nerve damage. The nerve damage results in pain, irritation, and swelling. When tooth decay becomes advanced, pus may form around the tooth as your immune system attempts to fight the decay. This buildup of pus causes bacteria.
