Frequent loss of tooth
My wife is loosing tooth from age of 15. Now her age is 27. By now, she lost 8teeth. Everytime, it is because of cavity. Now she got it rectified by wearing CAP. What could be the reason behind this? Is it stoppable? Or is it because of any vitamin deficiency?

Just consult a dentist as soon as you see any black spot on any tooth of your wife.
This will help to control further cavity extension.

The reason for Cavity or tooth decay as we call it is multi factorial. They're is no single cause of tooth decay. The primary causes are high frequency of sugar diet, lack of adequate oral hygiene(proper hygiene is not just brushing twice daily), thinning of enamel due to tooth brush abrasion(hard brushing), attrition (coarse diet) or erosion( acidic diet) and few other less prominent causes. Identification of the cause is important to avoid further tooth loss. You may take a second opinion for advice.
