It's called a probe and they have to to find if there's any decay and where exactly the decay is. Like when a doctor starts probing areas of the body that are in extreme pain to determine what is causing the pain. When they hit it you just about jump off the table.Uh-ooohh... good luck there...I'm up and ready extra early today. I'm going to the dentist this morning. I have a toothache.I hate the dentist.

I hate when they take the little hook and poke you in the sore tooth! They always do that!!!
