Do you feel pain when flossing between two teeth?
Does food repeatedly get stuck in the same area?
It could be Interproximal Caries — a hidden cavity that develops between teeth.
At Tathastu Dental, we focus on detecting these hidden dental problems before they become serious.
What Is Interproximal Caries?
Interproximal caries refers to tooth decay that forms between two adjacent teeth.
Because this area is not easily visible, the cavity can:
- Develop quietly
- Spread deeper without obvious symptoms
- Reach the nerve if untreated
This makes early diagnosis extremely important.
Common Signs of Between-Teeth Cavities
You may notice:
- Pain while flossing
- Food getting stuck frequently
- Sensitivity in a specific spot
- Mild discomfort while chewing
- Bad breath
Sometimes, there are no visible signs until the cavity becomes advanced.
Why X-Ray Is Necessary for Diagnosis
Interproximal cavities are often hidden from normal view.
Dental X-rays help to:
- Detect decay at an early stage
- Identify depth of cavity
- Prevent nerve involvement
- Plan appropriate treatment
Without X-ray, these cavities can easily go unnoticed.
What Happens If You Delay Treatment?
If ignored, interproximal caries can:
- Spread deeper into dentin
- Reach the pulp (nerve)
- Cause severe tooth pain
- Require root canal treatment
- Weaken tooth structure
Timely care prevents complex and costly procedures.
