ExpertDr. Garima VermaDentist4 years ago

A. No. root canal is the only proper treatment. The other thing is only extraction of the tooth which is not advised if the tooth can be saved. please follow your dentist

A. hi kindly visit your dentist for this as he or she can give proper guidance after examining your child. offer homemade healthy and well blanaced diet. avoid giving sticky and sugary food. keep your child well hydrated. brush your child teeth twice in a day with low flouride toothpaste. provide apt sun light at least 20 minutes a day. maintain good hygiene
