So to answer the original question, how long it takes for cavities to form really depends on a variety of factors. If Team Remineralization is healthy and playing well, it might take years for a cavity to form. If Team Decay has the momentum however, a cavity might form in weeks to months, depending on how severely tilted the balance of the tug-o-war teams is. -Nicolas K. Young, DMD. Dentist Orem Utah.
I am in an acute care setting. I know that it takes about 6 weeks to form a tract from the outside into the gastric space along the tube. If the tube comes out before this happens you risk reinserting into the peritonial space. If this tract has formed there is only one place the tube can go. My question was really for those patients who are in that 6 week window in which you risk quick closure of the hole and/or insertion into the peritonial space.
