Visit your dental surgeon soon if you want to save your teeth. Go for xray to determine the extent of decay. Delay in treatment will result in tooth loss.

Hi, The tooth which has turned black(decayed) will need an X-ray to decide the line of treatment and the other tooth where decay has just started can be cleaned by removing the decayed portion and filling it with a restorative material
Next Steps
Consult your nearby dentist and start the treatment or the decay will worsen. Thank you. Stay healthy and safe.
