There's a hole in my tooth...

[RandomFool]

So I'm sitting at work and after a nice relaxing game of Text Twist I noticed I've got a hole in my back left wisdom tooth. I hate the dentist but I suppose this warrents a call to one. I really hope this isn't going to be painful.

hole == cavity

Just plug it up with this.

This thing isn't just a cavity it's a hole. I could probably store stuff in there, but it doesn't hurt at all.

How big is this "hole"? Maybe the diameter of a paperclip wire?

I have one of these in one of my back molars. I asked my dentist about it before and she said it is a "pore". Just keep it clean and it should be okay. She told me once the worse case she saw was multiple pores per molar - patient had sensitive teeth because of it.

It is about that size so that's kinda reassuring. Last time I was at the dentist They said my wisdom teeth were fine. I really don't want to have them taken out.

If anyone wants me mail me a camera I can fit inside my mouth to take a picture of it they can feel free to do so.

what do you think a cavity is?

http://www.google.com/search?client=fir...&q=define%3A+cavity&btnG=Google+Search

"a sizeable hole"

"a hole"

"hollow area or hole caused by bacterial acids that attack the enamel of the tooth"

cavity == hole

You're all making good points... perhaps I am retarded.

no, no , no , don't be hard on yourself, just go to the dentist! the dentist can fix your teeth, it doesn't really matter what the thing it called, but it is bad for your tooth

get the dentist to look at it, you don't want to get a toothache
