How can I permanently get rid of temporary cavity ?
Patient: i had cavity on 8 teeth 4 years back. Then i consulted a dentist and filled my teeth with cement and white color filling material ( i dont know that may be amalgum ). At that time, i had deep and spread black color cavities on the upper side of my teeth. Temporarily they filled with material. But i dont know about this. What is cavity ?? all my teeth get afftected by this. how to permanently remove from my teeth ?? is it correct what i have filled with my teeth ?? is it a temporary solution ?? I wish to bring back my teeth without cavity. what to do ?? Doctor: Hi,     Once the cavity is formed, it is not possible to bring back the teeth without cavity as you expect.all you can do is prevent formation of caries in remaining teeth by-   -Maintaining good oral hygine-proper brushing (early morning&before going to bed ),(after sticky food like chocolates,  sweets ,)  -  Diet with calcium & vitamines.(MIlk,salads,fruits etc). Treatment of should start earliest. -Temporary filling,cement filling,silver filling are the steps of filling.(the silver/amalgum filling is permanent. -Deep caries can be treated by Root canal treatment. After the treatment you have to be careful by proper brushing. Also visit your dentist every 6 month &have regular check up. . - Mind it -Badly Infected caries teeth may need extraction.   Thankyou
