How about a cavity?: Sounds like you need evaluated by a dentist--could be a cavity, or recent abscess or lost filling. All of the above need seen by a dentist / dental clinic.

Cavity: You either have a cavity, lost a filling or broke a tooth. See a dentist for treatment of this. Don't wait until it gets worse and you have pain.

Im curious. Can gold and silver cavity fillings only be done on the top of back teeth/molars? Ive never seen a person with them on other teeth or on the sides of a tooth, is it just not done for aesthetics or is it just not possible?
