Talk to experienced dentist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
* Consult your nearest dentist who would examine and take x-rays to decide the treatment which could involve filling or Root Canal or extraction. Or gum disease treatment.
* Medicines can only give temporary relief but not cure as tooth decay is not something that is self healing.
* Unnecessary and self medication makes the things more complicated like antibiotic resistance and must be avoided.
