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.Health Question & Answer

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 luckHealth Question & Answer
