Black spot on my tooth but doesn't hurt?

[Micah klassen]

so I noticed this spot on my tooth a couple years ago and I sorta presumed it was something from the dentist when I was younger, but is it potentially a cavity? Doesn't hurt at all.

does anyone know what this is?? I have something exactly like that but slightly smaller. I also have tiny ones behind my teeth. I don't think it's a hole. How can I fix it??

Your picture is out of focus so I can't know for certain. If it has looked this way for a "couple of years" and hasn't changed then it is almost certainly a normal metal filling. In the profession we call it a "buccal pit amalgam".
