My maid is complaining of some tooth ache in her molar. She has history of internal cavities before even when the tooth looks okay from the top. She is taking some over the counter meds from the chemist for relief.
Please tell me any cheap and affordable treatments she can take without paying a heavy cost as she is not getting a lot of work due to Covid. I wil be happy to pass on the message. Thanks

A symptom of pain is indicative of a deeper cavity which is either close to the nerve or already in contact with the nerve. An X-ray is helpful to diagnose that.
The treatment required would be a deeper Filling or a root canal procedure . The cost of the filling is lesser than a root canal procedure.
Next Steps
Visit the local dentist to get an xray done
