Question
Hello doctor, this year I am going to be 17 years old with severe tooth decay to the point of losing my permanent teeth, but the tooth frame is still there, forming a pit that causes bad breath. I want to improve my bad breath, but I can't plant new teeth until I'm 18. The doctor can help and advise me on how to improve the problem of tooth decay causing bad breath? Thank you!
