I have a toothache, only when I chew on the tooth. If i press on a certain part of the tooth, it hurts. I've come to the conclusion that I have a cavity forming. Is there any way to treat it before it turns into something big? I despise the dentist.

I hate to tell you this, but ye ... go to the dentist. BUT there's some good news! (well, one actually).
There's this fluoride or fluorine thing (some fluor whatever) that the dentist will put on all your teeth and it will protect them from decaying or getting cavities, etc. for a long long time!! It's like a paste thing, you wash it out later, blah blah blah. Ima get that done once I get rid of the ton of metal that's in my mouth (braces).
Hope this helped, and good luck!

There really isn't anything you can do about it besides going to the dentist. (xD I hate the dentist too, when he turns the light on you- it just freaks me out) Go visit the dentist but before your visit try avoiding any additional damage to your tooth such as eating candy or sweetened drinks. If you have to- remember to rinse and brush your teeth. ]
If it is a cavity as much as you hate the dentist, there isnt anything you can do, i would sugest going to him asap. I went early once and they didnt ahve to drill or fill or anything they just had to do this quick easy painless sanding thing. The earlier you go the less pain and work you ahve to deal with. Good Luck!
