Please tell me, are all cavities visible to the naked eyes?

Can't always: See a cavity. Consider cavities between teeth that may not be readily visible. Your dentist can evaluate to determine if there are cavities.

Possible : It is possible to see some large cavities. However, some cavities can only be with x-rays and a good dental exam.
