ππ: πππ§ πππ―π’ππ’ππ¬ ππ π«ππ―ππ«π¬ππ?
The answer is: π¬π¨π¦πππ’π¦ππ¬ β but only in the very earliest stage.
Before a true cavity forms, tooth enamel can begin to lose minerals. At that early stage, the area may be able to π«ππ¦π’π§ππ«ππ₯π’π³π with the right support, including good homecare, fluoride, healthy habits, and regular dental visits.
But once the enamel has broken down and there is an actual hole in the tooth, that cavity πππ§π§π¨π heal itself or grow back. At that point, the tooth usually needs professional treatment to keep the decay from spreading deeper.
This is one of the reasons preventive care matters so much.
At Dr. Coppolaβs Office, Dr. Coppola and our hygiene team look for those early warning signs so we can help patients protect their natural teeth whenever possible.
ππ¨πππ¨π¦ π₯π’π§π:
Early enamel changes may be reversible. A true cavity is not.
If you have a spot youβre worried about, weβre always happy to take a look and guide you through the next best step.
