What should I do if my teeth have cavities?
If you have cavities, you need to take timely measures to treat them. Here are some common treatments:

1. Drug therapy: For teeth without cavities, drug therapy is usually used, including coating fluoride and silver nitrate on the surface of teeth, or remineralizing enamel and cementum with remineralization solution to prevent the development of caries. 2, tooth filling treatment: also known as "tooth filling", is for the treatment of teeth that have formed cavities. Before filling the teeth, the doctor will make some preparations for the teeth, including cleaning the decayed materials and cavity preparation, pulp preservation and pulp protection, and then repair the cavity with composite resin materials.

3. Root canal therapy: For cases with large cavities or pulpitis, root canal therapy is needed. First, drill a hole at the top of the decayed tooth, then extract the decayed dead pulp through the medical root canal, then sterilize the root canal, and finally fill it with root canal filling material. Restore the normal shape and basic function of dental caries. But also avoids the further erosion of external bacteria. 4, develop a good habit of brushing your teeth: brush once in the morning and evening. It is more appropriate to brush your teeth after breakfast, and you must brush your teeth before going to bed at night; After eating, you'd better brush your teeth or rinse your mouth to dilute the chance of food becoming sour in your mouth.
