Question: What should I do if I have a cavity and can't get an appointment!? !?
I can't get an appointment for about 1 month and there is no other dentist besides one other in my town!. I don't trust him very much though but!. I have a cavity on my canine tooth on the front (it isn't a cavity but a weak point) so I was wondering what can I to make sure the cavity won't get bigger and more of a problem while I get my appointment!?

Answers:
Brush, but also get a flouride mouthwash like ACT or the purple listerine!. ACT also makes a enamel strengthening mouthwash that is supposed to help with soft spots cause it has calcium in it I think!. It's blue whatever it is!.

And stay away from whitenening toothpaste!. Those usually whiten because they have abrasives in them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Brush with Biotene (antibacterial toothpaste)
You'll be fine!.
I usually avoid the dentist & wait much longer than that (unless I'm in pain)!.

Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

get toothpaste that will help strengthen your enamel!. make sure if you eat anything acidy (citrus, tomato products, pop) you brush and floss!. chew gum, sugarless of course!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
