Question: Can a tooth decay under the gums?
I have my 4 wisdom teeth and theyre not causing probelms at all my dentist said. He showed me an xray and they are growing straight and have enough space. But im worried if they decay. They are under the gums. Can they decay or rot??? My dentist said their in good shape for now. But he didnt mention decaying??? please help?? (and btw, im 13)

When they are under your gums, they're pretty safe from decay, just like your bones are safe from decay in such a sense. Don't worry about it. At least you don't have to get them removed. oy!



You need a dentist, who not only tells you about what your situation is like, but also gives you an optimum solution without freakking you out.

Yes, you can get a cavity under your gums. I recently just got a filling for under the gum line. It's possible.
