Is this a cavity? PLEASE help?!
Question: Ok so im 19 and have never had a cavaty before..so today I started having a pain on my left side on my jaw line. When I eat it doesnt hurt, the gum doesnt hurt, and I looked in my mouth and all my teeth look fine It only hurts when that spot on my jawline gets touched or bumped. I didnt get hurt there so I know its not that.

If you have a cavity in your tooth you should be able to feel it with your tongue.It would feel rough and jagged.You may have a small ulcer on your gum if it hurts.
if like a specific tooth hurts when you touch it or something like that and looks like dead i guess, then its a cavity....
it could be wisdom teeth comming in...they come in between 16-21 (most of the time)
cavities look like black spots on your teeth.
(they're decayed, hence the black) and they don't always hurt...sometimes only cold or only hot makes them hurt...so see a dentist to know for sure.
sounds like ur wisdom tooth may be coming through...rinse mouth with some salty water, about 3 times a day....
