one of my back teeth has rotted away and i have a minor rot in my front tooth

Q. I have a minor rot in 1 of my front teeth that doesn’t cause me problems but isn’t a great sight, but i also have 1 of my back teeth that has gradually rotted away and now has a huge hole that really needs filling and is giving me quite considerable pain, how do i go about getting them sorted because i really need a dentist?

A. Dear D,

My best advice to you is to talk to your family and friends to find a dentist that they recommend. Then book in as soon as possible before things get worse and the treatment becomes more complex.
