दांत में छेद हो जाए तो क्या करें

Title: "If a Cavity or Cracked Tooth Develops, What Should You Do?" (Answer in English for Indian Context) Immediate Action Rinse Thoroughly: Use warm water to flush out debris and reduce bacteria. Avoid Sugar/acidic Foods: Prevent further decay by skipping sugary snacks, soda, or citrus fruits. Home Remedies (Traditional Indian Suggestions) Baking Soda Paste: Mix baking soda with water to form a paste. Apply it to the affected area 2x daily for 5 minutes. Neem Leaves: Crush fresh neem leaves, mix with salt, and apply topically to reduce inflammation (avoid swallowing). Clove Oil: Soak a cotton ball in clove oil and place it on the cavity. Clove contains eugenol, a natural pain reliever. Seek Professional Help Visit a Dentist: Cavity Filling: Composite resin or amalgam fillings for small cracks. Root Canal: For deep infections reaching the pulp. Crown/bridge: For severe fractures or missing teeth. Emergency Care: If swelling, severe pain, or fever occurs, go to the ER immediately. Prevent Future Issues Daily Brushing: Use fluoride toothpaste twice daily. Flossing: Clean between teeth to prevent plaque buildup. Diet: Limit sugary treats and stay hydrated. 　　Note: Traditional remedies can temporarily alleviate discomfort but do not replace professional dental care. Early treatment saves teeth and prevents costly procedures. 　　In Indian contexts, consult a "Dentist" (دентист) or visit a "Government Dental College" ( सरकारी दांत विद्यापीठ ) for affordable care. Avoid self-medication for cracks to prevent complications.
