Cavities after wisdom tooth removal

2017-05-16 11:54:24
Hi I have my friend age 25 years, had recently undergone wisdom tooth removal. After 3-4 months there is cavity grown up in the adjacent tooth. Last week we visited the doctor and filling was done for that. Now the doctor said there are four upper teeths that too have cavities and suggesting for filling. Is this something related to infection which went till tooth root and do I need to go for Root canal. Can you please advise? Thanks in advance.
