What exactly are cavities and why shouldn't you wait to treat them? 🦷

What are cavities? They're permanent damage to your tooth surface [music] starting as tiny spots of decay. How do we treat them? With inlays and onlays. [music] When a cavity has damaged part of the tooth,

the decayed portion is carefully removed. The tooth is prepared [music] and a custom-made inlay or onlay is placed to restore the tooth shape, function, and strength. Why act early? Left [music] untreated, decay spreads

deeper leading to real pain and sensitivity. >> [music] >> Wait too long and the decay may progress to the point where an inlay or onlay is no longer enough. You may need a root

canal instead. That's why early treatment matters. Book your checkup with Oaks Dental Clinic today and let's catch it before it becomes a bigger problem.
