Patients often are the first to suspect the early onset of a cavity. The first sign of a cavity in the early stages is white spots on teeth. These spots are under the enamel layer but are visible in a mirror. This is a signal that your tooth has demineralization, which is the prime condition for a cavity.
Teeth that have brown or black stains are also signs of a cavity, although those may be in more serious stages than when you have white dots.
Tooth sensitivity is another symptom of early-stage cavities. You may experience mild pain when consuming items that are hot or cold. You may also feel a sharp or mild pain when eating something sweet.
