Hi. If you have a cavity in your tooth then plz go to an endodontist who will take an x ray and try to save the tooth by RCT ( root canal). Getting the teeth extracted at this age is not advisable unless it's grossly decayed or broken. Pain occurs when the caries reach the nerve. So once the first sitting of root canal is done you will get relief from pain. The dentist will also advise you antibiotics and painkillers. Painkillers would only provide you temporary relief. Treatment is must.
Health Tips
do not apply any balm or any other irritant to that area. only proper treatment from a qualified dentist will provide you relief.
