I feel a whole in one of my bottom teeth, it feels pretty big but I can't be too sure. Should I see a dentist?

I'm like 14 and I pretty much never brush my teeth (Please don't have an answer scolding me for it alright? I'm already angry enough at myself for it) Will brushing it 3 times a day stop the decay, or is it too late and should I see a dentist to get it pulled?

I was just like you. There are times when I do forget to brush my teeth. Yes I would go %26amp; see the dentist. I usually brush my teeth twice a day. The dentist will probably do a filling on that tooth. So don't feel bad about yourself. I know in time you will remember to brush your teeth every day. I do get told off at the dentist office when I don't brush my teeth enough times. So good luck at the dentist office.
Reply:see the dentist, most likely you can keep your tooth and just get a filling, but there's no way to turn back time and make the hole go away.
Reply:no dont brush 3 times a day, stick with 2, once in the morning and once before bed, i would go see a dentist and see what they have to say about it,





good luck!
Reply:It's a little on the late side go to the denist and get that bad boy pulled. Before it messes up your teeth next to that one.
Reply:No you've got to see a dentis A.S.A.P thats gotta be filled. The bad thing about leaving it un treated is if it starts to hurt or get infected your in going to be in some of the worst pain you've ever felt. Make a dentist appointment soon!
Reply:ya, you blew it you should see dentist soon, because it is going to start to hurt. I know how it feels, im not so great with brushing myself


good luck!!!
Reply:keep your teeth as long as you can





if you go to a dentist and get that plaque scraped off, then they last longer





if you don't brush , and don't go there every year (6 months is better), then your teeth fall out, its very painful, and then you need dentures which is even more painful and expensive and can make it hard to find dates
Reply:You should see a doctor. and, your teeth will fall out if u dont brush them. and, yes, brushing your teeth 2 or 3 times a day for 3 minutes everytime will help. have a nice day, and hope that helps! ^_^
Reply:If it hasn't started causing excrutiating pain yet, it will soon. That hole means the root and nerve are about to be exposed, and there's nothing worse than that pain.





The only thing you can do now is see a dentist for a root canal and crown.
Reply:You may not have to get it pulled you may be able to get it filled. But either way you are going to have to go to the dentist. Brushing alone won't help any the hole will ge bigger the decay can spread and may becom infected and afect your other teeth. I would make an appointment ASAP and NEVER not brush again! Hope that is a lesson learned.
Reply:You should see a dentist but If you choose not to see a dentist, at least purchase some Tea Tree Oil at Wal mart for $7. Get you a little sprayer bottle and mist your gums lightly daily. It will prevent gum disease and keep it from getting infected.
Reply:Yes see a dentist. If not your tooth will rot out. Your tooth can probably be saved.
Reply:I am thinking you probably do have acavity in the tooth. Get a small mirror and look in a large mirror. Put the small mirror in your mouth to see if it is a cavity or an ulcer or what. That should be your answer. If you rally are nto going to brush your teeth then what about rising out with mouthwash? It would help. It will not help to brush if you already have a cavity. You are too young to loose a tooth get it filled.
Reply:If you are having concerns, you should definitely go see a dentist ASAP...
Reply:EVERYBODY SHOULD GO TO THE DENTIST!
