Yes! Teeth are wonderful yet tricky at times! The tricky part is that teeth don't start hurting until there is a big problem. You can have a cavity on the outer most layer of your teeth and feel no pain! But once that cavity starts to grown and get further into the different layers of our teeth, patients may experience sensitivity, a little ache once in awhile and then it can turn into something that is throbbing , very painful and unfortunately won't let up. So it is important to come and get your teeth checked and x-rays at minimum one time a year. The X-rays help us catch things in-between your teeth and under your gums, all the way down to the tip of the root of your teeth. Just like dermatology appointments we are trying to catch things when they are small!
