Not "carry": It's "caries, " the dental jargon for cavity. It's an infection, a hole in a tooth caused by bacteria. How do you find out if you have a cavity? See a pro. A dentist has at least 8 years of education beyond high school just to be able to answer this question. As far as i know wikipedia does not hold a diploma from a dental school. Call a dentist before the infected tooth abscesses.
