You can go ahead with scaling and polishing.

Hi Sir, I had tooth filling from 8 years. Suddenly there is a severe pain on this tooth. 1. No pain while chewing or tapping tooth. 2. But severe pain during drinking / eating hot / cold food. 3. Pain is there upto 20-30 mins after hot/cold drink/food. I had visited dentist. He checked 1st teeth 1. He checked teeth is ok and white. 2. He checked tooth feeling is also ok. 3. I informed about above severe pain and sensitivity. 4. He taped teeth but no pain there and after 3-4 days pain is gradually decreased compare to previously. 5. Then he checked with x-ray. He saw something in x-ray and told me that there is "sado"(" caries) below tooth feeling. He said he doesn't know how it reached there. He advised me for root canal. And prescribed antibiotics and painkillers. I asked home about 2nd time tooth re filling after cleaning caries. But he said it's not possible and root canal required. Nowy questions are 1. Is it possible to remove tooth filling and clean care and again do 2nd time tooth filling? 2. My pain is reduced. After taking antibiotics, will it resolve on its own? 3 how caries is present under feeling? 4. Should I do rct or wait?

yes it is called secondary caries, once you feel pain on that particular tooth,you may need to go for root canal .because once you get pain means it reaches root and even after pain subside on antibiotic it have a chances to get pain again in future. it is advisable for root canal

Hi, You should not use anything without consulting a dentist, he is the right person to tell you what needs to be done after advising you some x-rays.

Hello, may be you are talking about the wisdom tooth which does not have enough space to erupt so it remain inside the gums. The destiny of that tooth will be predicted only after seeing the position of the tooth in a x-ray. So kindly get the xray done based on which if required it will be removed. Thanks.
