    A cavity is a hole in your tooth. Once you have it brushing is past its effectiveness.

    You need to get it filled. Otherwise, food will get in there and bacteria will grow which will break down your teeth more and more. If it gets into the root and it can get infected. I think this can even be life threatening.

    Your other option would be to pull your tooth and then you would be free of the cavity but you also lose the whole tooth. This is the way they did it before modern dentistry.
