About this video
Cavities can cause more damage than you might think.
As bacteria eat away at the tooth, that little area can eventually lead to:
• Sensitivity
• Pain or discomfort
• A weakened tooth
• Even a broken tooth
And the longer it goes untreated, the more involved treatment can become.
If something doesn’t feel right, it’s always worth getting it checked sooner rather than later.
