It is possible for a white spot on a tooth to change color and become brown. As the enamel on your teeth thins, you run the risk of developing cavities or even tiny holes.\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\n\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\tStage 3: Dentin decay\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\tWhen decay reaches the dentin in your teeth, you may start to experience sensitivity in those teeth.

Because they are unable to grow to accommodate the swelling, the surrounding tissues in the tooth may apply pressure to the nerves. This can cause the nerves to become inflamed. It's possible that this will cause pain.\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\n\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\tStage 5: Abscess\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\tWhen tooth decay reaches the pulp of the tooth, there is a greater chance that bacteria will enter the pulp and cause an infection. As a consequence of increased dental inflammation, you run the risk of developing an abscess, which is a pus-filled pocket that forms at the root of your tooth.\\n\\nWhen cavities in the teeth become infected with abscesses, the patient may experience terrible pain that radiates to the jaw. A fever, enlarged lymph nodes in the neck, and swelling of the gums, cheeks, or jaw are some of the other symptoms that may be present.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Why are my molars rotting at the gum line?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Molars have deep grooves and pits where food particles and plaque easily get trapped.
