Mild dental decay frequently begins with ambiguous symptoms, but early detection of these signals will aid in the prevention of tooth decay and more significant consequences. Signs of minor dental decay that require care include:
Changes in the tooth surface, such as white, brown, or black patches. These are the early indicators of dental decay.
A scratchy feeling or little holes appear on the tooth surface: this is a warning indication that dental decay is beginning to form.
More sensitive teeth: Teeth become more sensitive while brushing, eating, or drinking beverages that are too cold or too hot. When chewing and biting food, a slight ache develops gradually.
