[|AI|]  Hello and welcome. Thanks for sharing your concern. After reading your history I have come to this conclusion that your tooth requires root canal treatment. For that you can again take a short course of antibiotic for three days. I would also like to explain to you that both the doctors you visited were right in their approach, and they have suggested correct treatment. In my usual practice, if a patient comes with a complaint of toothache, I clean the cavity and seal it off with temporary cement. After that if the decay shows good prognosis then we go for permanent filling else root canal is the final treatment for that tooth.Therefore, please do not be worried and go for root canal treatment. You can approach your dentist and start a course of antibiotics and analgesics. Hope I have answered your query in detail. Thanks. Take care.
