Brief Answer: Root Canal Treatment Detailed Answer: Hi, Thanks for your query. For now you may have to take a course of antibiotics and painkillers. Once the pain has come down you can visit a dentist for Root canal treatment. Root canal treatment is a tooth conservative technique. The tooth remaining is conserved and the decay is removed and a cap installed. Regards,
