Having cavities; characterized by the presence of hollow spaces or holes.
From 'cavity' + '-ed' suffix (having the quality of), creating an adjective form similar to how 'worried' comes from 'worry'.
A cavitied tooth is literally porous—the hollow spaces are highways for bacteria to travel deeper into the tooth, which is why early detection prevents massive pain later.
