Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Do apply DOLOGEL over the affected tooth.

DOLOGEL contains anaesthetic and provides instant relief from pain. If the pain is too severe then you can take Tab Motrin 400 mg twice daily after food, for not more than 2 days.

If there is a cavity created then it is better for you to visit a dentist to get a root canal treatment done.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
