What to do if i get a cavity filled, but what can i do in the meantime?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cavity: If you can easily see it, feel it, it is well advanced. There is no OTC, homeopathic, pill, salve, paste, mouth wash, ointment, or snake oil that will treat an infected tooth. You have to see a Dentist, NOW. Time is not your friend. Go get it fixed. The longer you wait, the more extensive (expensive) the cure.
