Bozuk dentin is a term used in dentistry to describe a type of tooth decay. It occurs when the enamel and dentin layers of the tooth have been weakened by bacteria or acid, resulting in the dentin layer becoming soft and porous. Bozuk dentin can lead to severe tooth pain and infection and needs to be treated quickly to avoid further damage. Treatment usually involves the use of restorative materials to repair and strengthen the affected areas, as well as antibiotics to treat any infection.

Bozuk dentin is a term used in dentistry which refers to weakened or damaged dentin, the layer of tissue between the enamel and the pulp of a tooth. It can be caused by various factors such as acid erosion, cavities, and trauma. Bozuk dentin can cause sensitivity to hot and cold foods and liquids, as well as pain when biting or chewing. If left untreated, it can lead to deeper decay and infection of the pulp, and may require more extensive restorative procedures. To prevent bozuk dentin, it is important to practice good oral hygiene, such as brushing twice a day and flossing daily, as well as regular visits to the dentist.
