What do you do when the dentin is showing on your tooth?

If the dentin is showing on your tooth, it's important to see a dentist as soon as possible. Dentin exposure can lead to increased sensitivity, pain, and further decay if not treated. The dentist may recommend options such as fluoride treatments, dental bonding, or a crown to protect the tooth and restore its integrity. In the meantime, avoid very hot, cold, or sweet foods that could exacerbate sensitivity.
