Tooth Decay Questions

Asked for female, 46 years old from Kolkata

If you want a cheaper option go for rpd. If you want best option go for implant. Cheapest in fixed options will be bridge. But in case of your own body go for something which is best.

Health Query

Hi, Can cavity/decay in tooth be reversed/ healed in 2 years old toddler teeth? Is there any ayurvedic natural means to do so? Or is it necessary to get the filling and surgical procedure done?

Yes. It's necessary to get filling done. Best at earliest as its a progressive disease n can cause many harms if left unattended. Tooth material lost due to caries can not be regrow n by any available procedure by the body as its a blood less tissue.

Health Query

I used to have panic attacks, I am taking propranolol for that, my tooth is decayed & my dentist advised me to either go for a root canal or tooth extraction, I want to save my tooth but I am very very scared about the root canal treatment specially the rubber thing they put on your mouth. It feels like I am going to stop breathing & I just read treatment is not suitable for people who have hypertension, can someone help please too stressed.

Root canal treatment is a good option and there is as such no contradiction for root canal treatment for hypertensive patients...

Just perform one x Ray of front region teeth and consult Dr. whether all teeth need rct or not. U need to perform rct for needed teeth becoz these teeth will lose at age of 7.5- 8 yrs. For remaining teeth simple filling process can be done.

Kindly get an X-ray done of the tooth having pain. May be you will have to get root canal treatment done followed by a cap/crown. Brush your teeth twice daily using correct brushing technique to maintain your oral hygiene.

Asked for male, 22 years old from Gaya

I am 23 year old, my tooth is decaying and hole is formed, it is painful. What can do?

Dr. Anupreet Kaur Choudhury92%(9068 ratings)

If the hole is painful, then get an X-ray done and see a dentist. The reason of pain could be that the cavity has approached the nerve portion of the tooth ,so the pain.
