Tooth decay may not cause any symptoms until it has reached an advanced stage, and as the problem develops certain symptoms may emerge including:
- Toothache or tooth pain
- Tooth sensitivity
- Grey, brown or black spots appearing on your teeth
- Bad breath
- Unpleasant taste in your mouth
- Front tooth decay can look unsightly
If left untreated, further complications including cavities, gum disease or dental abscesses may occur.
