When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
  • Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
  • Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description, special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
  • Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
  • Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors. Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

When there is a sudden changes in the nature of a contact, that usually indicates that something has changed the contact morphology. It could be a fracture, caries, orthodontic changes, or it could be something lodged in the contact area. It should be looked at by a dentist to prevent permanent damage.

It could possibly be decay. The best thing would be to see your dentist and let them diagnose the problem. Letting this go on can cause food or floss to lodge and cause more decay or periodontal (gum) disease.

Could be that there is decay or a broken restoration between your teeth. Only way to know is an exam and xray.
