Cavity
A dental cavity, also known as tooth decay or caries, is a hole that forms in the tooth when the enamel is damaged by acids.
Over time, cavities can grow deeper, causing pain, sensitivity, and possible infection.

Gum disease (periodontal disease) affects the tissues that hold your teeth in place, often caused by poor brushing and plaque buildup.
It can lead to swollen gums, bleeding, and even tooth loss if untreated.
Tooth sensitivity occurs when the enamel wears down, exposing dentin. This causes pain when consuming hot, cold, sweet, or acidic foods.
It can be managed with proper dental care and desensitizing toothpaste.
Oral cancer appears as a growth or sore in the mouth that does not go away. It can be life-threatening if not diagnosed early.
Regular dental checkups can help detect oral cancer in its early stages.
