Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
My tooth has become black and I have been feeling sensitivity while chewing and having some cold and sweet feeling like it is due to the cavity. Can it be reduced naturally? Kindly suggest.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I can understand your concern.
As per your history, it looks like you are having reversible pulpitis, which means there is a cavity in progression. If you get it filled, the sensitivity will subside and there will be no further decay. If you leave it as it may lead to your infection, then you have to get it root canaled or extracted. You can use desensitizing toothpaste but this is temporary. You can also avoid it by not eating hot or cold or sweet food but all these are temporary provisions. My opinion is to visit a dentist and get it filled as soon as possible.
I hope this information will help you.
Thank you.
