What will ultimately happen if i dont get treatment for my decayed teeth?

I have about 7 teeth in my mouth that are really bad off they are decayed and i've had terrible pain that ends up going away after about a week then the tooth gets numb, one has broken off all the way... all of them are back teeth

What will ultimately happen if i dont get treatment for my decayed teeth?
The tooth will die and eventually fall out. This will mean that the opposing tooth will overerupt and eventually fall out. Teeth behind the missing tooth will fall forward and also eventually fall out. Also, if you don't have teeth, you won't be able to chew your food. Poor dental hygiene leads to bone loss in the jaw and you may think that you can just wear dentures, but if you have radical bone loss, there is nothing to put the dentures on.





Poor dental hygiene has been linked to heart disease, although not much is known about this yet.
Reply:The pain goes away when the nerve inside the tooth ties. This is literally an infection in your mouth. Infections can spread to other parts of your body. Teeth that cannot be saved should be extracted. Teeth that can be saved may require a variety of treatments. Either way, this will only continue to cause problems without treatment.
Reply:The decay will go deeper into the pulp of the tooth. The pain and discomfort will be severe. The teeth will either need endodontic therapy [root canal treatment} or extraction. If u opt to extract the teeth, your bite may change and teeth shift and overerupt. The best is to get dental care immediately.
