Hello,

Thanks for consulting HCM,

Read your query, as you have cavities in tooth this cavities is due to caries present in teeth so this means there is infection in teeth involves pulp of tooth causing bleeding dont be so scared there is no pain in treatment , procedures are painless and under anaesthesia medicine will give yoh temporary relief for short duration of time so I will advise you must consult dentist and go for its treatment Restoration of teeth and oral prophylaxis .
In meantime you can take analgesic for pain like Diclomol SP or Paracetamol if you are not allergic , dont use hard bristle brush for brushing , you can put temporary cotton of clove oil on cavities tooth,
Do warm saline rinses.

Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.

Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

Fear and being apprehensive of the dentist will not cure your tooth.So relax and have a positive attitude towards the treatment .

The bleeding from the tooth suggests deep caries involving the pulp ,which may lead to formation of an abscess if the treatment is not done .

I would advice you to visit an endodontist and get a radiograph done to see the extent of the decay involving the tooth and get the root canal treatment done.

If neglected ,it cannot be saved.
Do salt water gargling.

Hope this was helpful.
Thanks and regards.
