It is not necessary to extract half of the rotten teeth, half of the rotten teeth can be preserved through treatment, and the treatment method depends on whether the nerve is infected or not. If the tooth is only deeply decayed but the nerve is not inflamed, the patient usually only has the pain of food embedment, transient sensitivity to hot and cold stimulation or transient pain, in this case, it is necessary to remove the decayed material, if necessary, put a layer of calcium hydroxide pulp guard at the bottom of the sulcus, and then fill the sulcus with dental material. If the tooth nerve is infected and the symptoms of pulpitis appear, i.e. external stimulation will cause severe pain or spontaneous pain, root canal treatment should be done first, the infected pulp should be removed, the root canal should be cleaned and disinfected, and then the root canal should be filled tightly, and the tooth after root canal treatment is recommended to use wrapped crown to restore the shape of the tooth, after this series of treatment, the tooth can restore the normal chewing function.
