Do all cavities need to be fillied straight away?
Yes. The longer you wait to have a cavity filled, the greater the chance it has to advance further into the tooth towards the pulp (nerve). If it eventually reaches the nerve, an abscess can develop, resulting in more costly treatment or possibly even loss of the tooth.

After a tooth injury All teeth are in place pain is leaving but just noticed a very slight tooth discoloration will it eventually lighten up?
SORRY but the answer is no it won't. Your tooth has become dead or is dying. You would be advised to undergo a root canal treatment immediately and later a crown. DO not wait for the color to brighten up.It won't
If your canine tooth is infected and needs to be pulled but the nerve dies and the pain is gone can you keep tooth until it falls out?
That's probably not a good idea. If it's infected it could cause some serious problems if it isn't dealt with properly. Of course the above is true. If you leave the tooth and it rots it can go into the jaw bone and also cause facial pain and also spread to the teeth on each side. It's best to have it pulled. Dentists today have different bridges that can be put in your mouth to replace the canine tooth. There are many things a dentist could do. If the infection is in the gingiva (gums), it is called Periodontal Disease and can be treated. If the infection is at the apex of the root (the tip of the root), it is called an abscess. It is treated with antibiotics and pulled usually. Now if you are only experiencing periodontal disease and the nerve is dead, the dentist will perform a root canal treatment. And you will be able to keep your tooth but it will have a covering over it called a crown. You SHOULD NEVER leave an infection especially in the oral cavity. If you wait too long especially if its an abscess, you can cause bone loss in your jaw which is extremely painful. Hope this helps. My advice... go see your dentist ASAP!!!! == == == ==
Is it safe if the dentist said to wait three days until your next appointment to take a prophylaxis antibiotic to pull an abscessed tooth?
I would not wait to take an antibiotic for an abcess tooth! If you get the tooth pulled with the infection still in site...you are in for one rude awakening when he attempts to pull that tooth!
How long should a cavity go untreated?
If it has been diagnosed as a cavity, treating it sooner than later is better. Dental decay does not heal itself. It will tend to get bigger over time. If you wait long enough, you will need a root canal treatment and a crown placed to save the tooth. This can run into thousands of dollars and possibly a great deal of pain.
How long do you have to wait to smoke after getting tooth pulled?
Dental care professionals recommend a minimum of 48 hours, although some suggest not smoking for up to 2 weeks when your gums are fully healed. Smoking, as well as drinking from a straw, can cause dry sockets which are very painful and have no treatment options.
