What is the impact of poor oral hygiene on interdental decay?

I took a deeper dive today into the world of oral health and trust me when I say, it's way more important than we often give it credit for! Poor oral hygiene, I discovered, can have significant impacts on interdental decay - those pesky cavities between our teeth. It's all about the bad bacteria, plaque and food particles that build up there. If left unchecked, this buildup can lead to cavities and even gum disease. So really, it's crucial we all level up our dental hygiene game for our pearly whites' sake!
