I went to the dentist recently and my dentist said that he's suspecting tooth decay on my top right molar. I think he's right cause it's painful when I eat anything sweet, and the tooth has some sensitivity. I wanted to know if there was any way to prevent further decay, because I already need to have 4 teeth knocked out due to getting braces. 3 out of the 4 teeth are being removed because they have fillings, and I'm pretty sure that they'll consider taking this one out too if it requires a filling as well. Also - I don't know if this of any importance - but I'm 15 years old.
I guess I'm the type of person who, no matter how many times I brush my teeth, use mouthwash, occasionally floss (should be working on that) and just generally take care of them, I'll still get cavities. >_>
Please let me know if there's anything I can do, regardless of how minimal the effects may be.
