Dental cavities, also known as caries or tooth decay, are damaged areas in the hard surface of your teeth that develop into tiny openings or holes. Cavities are caused by a combination of factors, including bacteria in your mouth, frequent snacking, sipping sugary drinks, and not cleaning your teeth well.

Pain when biting on a tooth, also known as occlusal pain, can be caused by various dental issues. It's essential to identify the underlying cause of the pain in order to address it appropriately.

Root canal-treated teeth often require dental crowns to prevent vertical root fractures and to ensure their long-term strength and functionality.
