well at the moment I have a very large hole in two teeth.. one of them has wax in it as a temp filling and the other one the wax filling fell out last night LOL...So I have been keeping it very clean at all times with warm Sea Salt water and oregano oil mix with olive oil and some water. it feels just fine... So what I would do is go get the filling out then take care of it untill you are ready to go to a biological dentist...
