Cavity... severe pain
Hiii... I'm 35 years old... I had a cavity in my tooth and it was causing pain, especially at night. However, the pain used to go away on its own without any medication. When I visited the dentist, they recommended a root canal treatment (RCT). However, they also suggested trying a temporary filling first to see if the tooth could be managed without an RCT. They said that if there was no pain after the filling, we could continue with it; otherwise, an RCT would be necessary. Yesterday morning, I got the filling done. After returning home, I started experiencing very severe tooth pain in the evening—much worse than I had ever felt before. We called the dentist, and they prescribed a painkiller and an antibiotic and again advised an RCT.....i wanted to ask whether getting the filling was the wrong decision. What could be the reason for such severe pain after the filling?

Black spots on my baby's teeth
My baby was born on 16 May 2025. I have noticed multiple black/dark spots on both the upper and lower front teeth and am concerned whether these are cavities, stains, or an enamel problem. He takes NAN PRO 3 formula milk and daily supplements (D3 Must, Gemcal P, and A To Z NS, 1 ml each). His diet includes dalia, dal, apple puree, banana. Could you please advise: 1. What could be causing these black spots? 2. Do these look like cavities that need treatment? 3. Could formula milk, night feeds, diet, or supplements be contributing? 4. Should I take him for an in-person dental check-up urgently? I have attached a photo for reference.
