Pain in decayed tooth
I have three decayed teeth which is almost open as portion of them broke over the time. Every 6 month or so all of them starts to pain one after one.
I intake keterol-dt and it helps me in pain. This goes for a fortnight and then it starts fresh to the other decayed tooth.
This is from last 4 years. But right now, one of my tooth is giving me problems. At first keterol-dt was helping in pain for continuous 3 days. But now it has stopped working. It pains a lot and I have tried Brufen and keterol together, but nothing.

First of all you should stop taking random pain killers.
Most of the times, these infected teeth can easily pe treated by root canal treatment(RCT).

it seems you have some infection in your teeth which is causing recurring pain which will not be cured by pain killers alone. you need an antibiotic as an adjunct to the pain killer but that too will be a stop gap arrangement as it won't treat the root cause of infection. so what you need to do is visit a dentist & take his /her advise. probably a few xrays will be taken & the dentist will guide you about a permanent solution to your recurrent problems.
Hope this helps

Medication works for a specific time and then the body becomes resistant to it ..you should go for a check up and plan the treatment accordingly after X ray confirmation. .If ignored more it will eventually lead to tooth breakdown and later cannot be replaced. .kindly go for treatment than continuous medication usage .

Hi, you should consult dentist as soon as you recognize the very first cavity, in spite of knowing that you are having cavities and not going to dentist is a complete negligence n improper to your health.
There is no medicine that can cure that cavity, with time, it Obviously get worse, Medicine is just a supportive measure, It's not a solution, painkillers will work only up to its working hours in our body and taking too much painkillers again n again is just causing too much harm to your body. And every next time you take the same medicine, our body got more tolerance with that.
Dentist can easily guide you n help you about your teeth. Most probably he will save your teeth.
please do not ignore such things n avoid taking too much medications unnecessarily, Guide others also about that, Thanks.

You should consult with dentist and go for your x-ray of same side. According to your complaint, there must be a periapical ( in bone) infection which need proper investigation (x-ray) and treatment planning ( like extraction or root canal treatment).
