SIGNS OF A CAVITY 
     
       Plaque is formed when food and bacteria builds up in 
your teeth. The bacteria in plaque produce acids that 
have the efficiency to damage the enamel. If someone 
does not brushes and flosses daily, then plaque will eat 
your teeth and forms cavity. Eventually, cavity creates 
a hole in the tooth and if left untreated leads to entire 
damage of it. An untreated cavity also leads to some 
serious complications like infection that enters our 
bloodstream that can be life threatening.
Signs of a Cavity
 Hot and cold sensitivity
      When there is no presence of enough enamel, food which is hot, 
cold, sticky and acidic tends to stimulate the cells and creates 
sensitivity
 Toothache
      An ongoing pain in the tooth can be a sign of cavity. Pain can come 
suddenly and can be felt when you eat something.
 Stains on tooth
       Stains can be of various colors like yellow, black, white or brown 
which appear on the surface of tooth. As the cavity becomes serious, 
color of the stain tends to become darker.
 A hole in your tooth
      When cavity starts worsening, it ends up making a hole in the tooth 
which you may be able to see in the mirror or when you run tongue 
over the surface of that tooth. Immediate dental appointment is 
required for the cause.
How to prevent a Cavity?
 Brush 2 times a day with a toothpaste 
containing fluoride
 Visit a dentist every 6 months for dental 
cleanings and preventive care
 Floss your teeth daily
 Drink plenty of water to rinse your teeth 
and boost saliva flow. Dry mouth is also 
responsible for cavities.
 Avoid intake of sugary items
