If my teeth do not hurt does that mean that I do not have any dental problems?

The lack of pain is not a good indicator of dental health. You can have cavities in the teeth with no pain. The pain usually will not appear until the decay has entered the nerve and infected it. This is a late warning stage that requires either root canal therapy or extraction. In addition, patients usually do not notice gum disease until the teeth are loose or abscesses form.
