Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have too much pain in teeth and also getting tiny small type holes in teeth. I am a male, 18 years old.

Answered by Dr. Tooba Qazi

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Holes in teeth indicate cavities. If you are having severe pain in teeth this may indicate you are suffering from pulpitis and you need root canal treatment from your dentist. Meanwhile, start with the following medicines. Take Augmentin 625 mg two times a day, Gramex 400 mg (Metronidazole) two times a day, Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day at every eight hours for three days. Take all these medicines for five days. This will relieve your pain for a while and visit your dentist as soon as possible for treatment. Take care. Stay happy and blessed.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
