Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The problem you are facing with looks like you are suffering from acute necrotising ulcerative periodontitis(ANUG). It will not be associated with any other causes but the teeth will become loose and exfoliates. The decay can be because of the improper oral hygiene or secondary to any systemic conditions that affect the salivary secretion(xerostomia). Consult a oral physician and get these conditions ruled out. If it is because of the ANUG then get the teeth cleaned and we can place graft(bone like material) if needed. The decayed teeth can be restored with silver amalgam or composites. If it is pulpallly involved, then it can be treated with RCT. I hope my answer will help you, Take care.
