A food is being canned in order to prevent it from going bad or in order to extend its shelf life. A dented can has the possibility of allowing the pathogens to penetrate the food inside, which means the food's shelf life decreases owing to the bacteria and molds that hasten the break down of food. This can lead to "botulism" or "food poisoning," which is a foodborne illness.

Botulism is caused by "Clostridium botulinum," a bacteria that produces the neurotoxin botulinum. This is a dangerous toxin that prevents the release of acetylcholine. This results to nerve paralysis.
