Dental health........!!!!!!!!?

okay on one of my molars theres a little hole in my tooth ( its not in the center where the cavity would be) its off to the right er left..er whatever..what is that hole!?.. what will the dentist do? & when i schedule an appointment how long until i get in there?

It's possible to get a cavity in other areas of the tooth besides the middle. As far as what the dentist will do, it's hard to tell. Maybe a filling, maybe a crown. It depends on what's wrong, and how big the area is. How long until you see a dentist depends on the individual dentist. Some, with very busy practices or in larger cities might not be able to see you right away. Others can get you in the next day. You should be seeing a dentist every six months, or at the very least every year. That way you can take care of these things before they progress very far. Good luck.

that is such a cavity. cavities dont form right in the center. they are everywhere. so call your dentist and tell him that you think you might have a cavity but arnt sure. they will examn it befor they work on it.

Who says that a cavity is in the center? Your molars have lots of surface area, and cavities can occur anywhere. If you are experiencing sensitivity to hot, cold, sweet or sour substances near the area of the "hole", it's more than likely a cavity. If you don't feel anything there, but just happened to notice the hole, then, it's either a small dimple in the enamel that has become stained enough to look like a hole, or it's really a hole. Either way, you should get it checked out. That's why it's good to get annual checkups and cleanings-- so those things can be correctly identified and handled.

hello dere..firts thing you should do is to take appointment frm da dentist...he will examin and tell u wht the problem is...if da cavity is present and it is deep he may take xray and decide,,,question is do u ahve pain anytime when u eat ,,,does food gets stuck in da cavity coz lots depend on that...is the tooth sensitive to heat and cold...whtever do get the check up done as soon a possible...so that the doesnt become big coz if teh cavity becomes big then the infection may reach the pulp and the tooth may have to go for root canal treatment...and if it increases more u may have to go for extraction,,,remember"PREVENTION IS BETTER THEN CURE..." SOGO AHEAD DON DELAY.....GUD LUCK...
