Take a painkiller like Zerodol-P for temporary relief,,after that get an X-ray done and see a dentist,the cavity may be deep touching the pulp of the tooth,,so a root canal filling followed by a crown can be done to save the tooth.Also avoid chewing on hard food from affected side.

Hello!
Please get a X-Ray done to see weather the cavity has reached the nerve. In that case you have to get a root canal done with filling and crowning. If the cavity is mild than just get another filling done.
