Keep An Eye Out For Cavity Symptoms

June 24, 2015

ThinkstockPhotos-477249801Just because you get a cavity doesn’t mean the world is ending. We understand that there are tempting foods and snacks out there. Carbonated drinks can sometimes sound much more quenching than plain water. Though we can try our best to steer you away from sugary drinks and other foods that wreak havoc on your teeth, the decision is left to you. Cavities, unfortunately, are most often the result. If you are currently dealing with a cavity issue, Drs. Doug Clark Jr. and Douglas Clark III would like you to come in for a checkup and determine how best to treat your cavity issues. The warning signs of cavities are easily felt, and can be corrected if caught early enough.

 

What is a Cavity?

Cavities are permanently damaged areas in the hard surface of your teeth that turn into tiny openings or holes. Also referred to as tooth decay or caries, cavities are caused by a combination of factors, including bacteria in your mouth, frequent snacking, sipping sugary drinks and so much more. It’s among the world’s most common health problems, especially in children and teens. If they aren’t treated, they get larger and affect deeper layers of your teeth not visible to the eye. Severe toothaches, infection and tooth loss have resulted from patients who didn’t treat their cavity.

Symptoms To Look Out For

The signs and symptoms of cavities vary depending on their extent and location. One thing is for sure – a cavity is not something you want to deal with. When a cavity is born, you may not experience any symptoms. However, once the decay increases in size, the signs and symptoms become more apparent.

  • Toothache
  • Tooth sensitivity
  • Mild to sharp pain when eating or drinking something sweet, hot or cold
  • Visible holes or pits in your teeth
  • Brown, black or white staining on any surface of a tooth
  • Pain when you bite down

Any or all of these symptoms can combine and result in a terrible dental experience for a patient. Any amount of pain or discomfort you feel that isn’t normal should be handled by a dentist you can trust. Our team is prepared to bring your smile back to working order.
