A cavity is a decayed place in a tooth. Dentists will often give an injection to numb the area around the cavity. They scrape out the decay with a drill and then fill it with a permanent, hard substance. The only thing that hurts is the brief pin-prick of the injection.
These sites have information about the exams.

Yes, I can certainly explain what happens when a cavity is removed and provide some websites for practice exams.
When you go to the dentist to get a cavity removed, they will often begin by giving you an injection to numb the area around the cavity. This is done to ensure that you don't feel any pain during the procedure. While the injection itself may cause a brief pin-prick sensation, it is generally not very painful.
Once the area is numb, the dentist will use a drill or other dental instruments to remove the decayed part of your tooth. This is done to get rid of the cavity and prevent further decay. The dentist will then clean the area thoroughly to ensure that no bacteria or infection remains.
After the decay is removed, the dentist will fill the cavity with a permanent, hard substance. This filling helps restore the structure and functionality of the tooth. The type of filling material used can vary, but common options include composite resin or amalgam (silver) fillings.
The entire process of getting a cavity removed usually takes around 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size and location of the cavity. It is important to note that you will be numb during the procedure, so you shouldn't feel any pain. However, if you experience any discomfort, it is important to let your dentist know so they can adjust the numbing medication accordingly.
Now, regarding the practice exams for the ELM (Entry Level Mathematics) and EPT (English Placement Test), here are a couple of websites where you can access practice materials:
1. http://www.csumathsuccess.org/elm_exam
This website provides information and practice resources specifically for the ELM exam. You should be able to find sample questions and practice tests to help you prepare.
2. http://www-ugs.csusb.edu/testing/eptfaq.html
This website offers frequently asked questions about the EPT exam. While it doesn't provide specific practice exams, it can still be a helpful resource to gain insights into the format and content of the exam.
Remember, practicing with sample questions and exams can greatly assist you in familiarizing yourself with the exam format, identifying areas where you might need additional study, and boosting your overall confidence on test day.
Good luck with your cavity removal and exams!
