Talk to experienced dentist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
See, by looking at attached x ray, it seems like minor cavities. But you need to get them filled. As more you delay, more problems you may face. So it's better to get treatment as early as you can.
Still have queries then you can consult online also for better guidance and treatment options.
