Experiencing Pain At The Lower Canine & Molar On Left Side

I have a rather irritating pain between my lower canine and molar on the left side, there is also a slight gap between these two teeth and what seems to be a black dot. In general the teeth towards the back of my mouth are sensitive to hot and cold extremes. I asked a dentist if I had cavities he said no but I'm not sure what's going on.

Hi
I suspect you have a decay between the teeth. Ask your dentist to take a radiograph and confirm whether there is a decay or not. The pain could also be due to gingivitis/periodontitis(inflammation of gums) and the black spot what you are seeing could be deposits (calculus/stains) on your teeth
