Hello, visit a dentist and get it checked.if required get an X-ray done.if there is a cavity get it filled.it will cost you around Rs 500- 1500/- depending upon the dentist, case and the locality of the clinic.also get your scaling and polishing done every 6 months.

The status of tooth is better judged by consulting your dentist. It matters whether the nerve is infected or not. If infected it s better to undergo root canal treatment at earliest possible for better prognosis.

If infection is there it will go for RCT. If only cavity without any pain or sensitivity, a filling can also be done.

Infection or not. Leave it to dentist. It depends on how much the decay is... If it's fine by filling it would cost between 300-1000 and for root canal around 2000-5000 depending on your dentist.
