Is it normal for an adult to get cavities?
No matter your age, you still might get cavities. The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research has reported 92% of people between the ages 18 to 64 have had cavities in their permanent teeth. Just because you floss and brush your teeth regularly does not mean you're off the hook. Schedule regular teeth cleaning appointments with your dentist to prevent tooth decay, cavities and gum disease.
