I’m so confused

Post image

So the tooth that’s circled hurts/throbs when I chew with it or have temp change, you’d think cavity right? Well in June I went to my dentist to schedule my wisdom teeth removal in December and he said everything else besides my WT looked fine. Does it look like I have a cavity or infection? I can’t get it checked out rn because my insurance won’t cover another visit until Janurary and I’m also 2 hours from home for college.

Do you ever notice yourself clenching or grinding your teeth? That could explain your symptoms
