hello, visit a dentist and get it checked. get an x-ray done. if there is a cavity, get it filled. if there is infection to the root of the tooth, you need to get it treated. then get a crown placed over it.

Hello, you should consult to a Dentist and get it checked. it is better to see the case clinically for proper treatment plan and prognosis.It needs to be evaluated the extent of the decay . Depending on the extent of decay it can be decided whether the tooth needs to go under a RCT or will a filling be enough.

Visit your dentist who would take an x Ray of the tooth and depending on signs and symptoms and weather decay involves the pulp then Rct would be done
