Hi.
i noticed a black dot on my tooth which to me looks like a hole. it is not really that big and i am wondering whether or not to go to the dentist. the reason that i am worried about going the dentist is that 1) my dentist doesnt have a clue about scuba diving and pressure, and 2) if it was a hole and needed filling she may possibly leave a small air space in my tooth under the filling which would cause a squeeze in my tooth with the effect of pressure.
i was wondering if i left it and just dived. would it cause a problem since that the air in the hole isnt realy trapped because it could just escape through the opening of the hole if i diddn't get it filled?
i appreciate your time and answers/suggestions thanks very much
