Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have had dental caries in my first two upper incisors. One incisor was replaced with a new tooth.

Please suggest some home remedies.

Answered by Dr. Priyanga. K

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Since you have been treated for one incisor decay, you very well know about the treatment procedures.

If you have episodes of pain I strongly recommend visiting your dentist and undergoing the same root canal procedure if it involves the pulp. For your molars, need your photographs and radiographs to investigate the extent of the decay.

The home remedy for the pain is just to take a clove and have a bite by the affected tooth. But it is a very minimal temporary treatment.

Please visit your dentist and start your treatment.

Have a good day.

Thanks and regards.
