Though brushing twice a day with correct technique will keep a check on the ongoing cavities but they won't reverse those cavities .
Next Steps
you should visit your dentist for the treatment of those cavities before they get to worse.

If once cavity is formed in your tooth,it will not reverse by 2 times brushing only.there are another separate treatment for cavitated tooth but daily 2 times brushing with proper brushing technique will help you to keep your other tooth healthy.
Next Steps
kindly visit nearby dental clinic and get those teeth treated which already have cavities.

It will not reverse already started cavities. But can prevent the formation of new cavities to an extent. Use of flouride tooth paste or flouride varnish can arrest the early caries to an extent. You can try that.
Next Steps
Go to a dentist and do treat your cavities if needed.
