However, depending on how deep the hole, the teeth may need more work (ie root canals (endodontics))

I've had this done in the past. I had it drilled out and then they filled it with the white filling stuff. However, these fillings don't seem to last as long for me, I think it's because the filling is so shallow and more just of a surface cover and not deep where it can grab into the nooks and crannies, etc.
However, yes it can be done. I've even had fillings up in where there was no decay but the enamel had wore away and I was expereincing a lot of sensativity.

undesirable toddler... I in basic terms take place to be between the main (the teeth disadvantaged(via fact of satin) in this city... they are able to do it countless procedures. yet one ingredient for particular, the needle, it completely takes away the soreness; bu8t if its the front the teeth, the needle feels as though it dealing with your nostril and into the attention...yet once you like artwork interior the lower back the teeth, no concern, they actually have a gel that numbs the spot the place the needle is going , to numb the the teeth...be sure you do no longer swallow any products of debry(sp) ...additionally, they have an inclination to positioned on what I call the rain coat; a peice of latex ,and then surrounds the the teeth, so which you will DROOL...i in my opinion loved the coaching that got here of undesirable the teeth, it rather is neat how dentistry has replaced... right here's a secret for each individual...SCIENTISTS HAVE got here across a thank you to advance actual the teeth... Anywho; take word at what the dentist does and learn on a similar time and it rather is going to be over with earlier you recognize it...And this replaced into 6 years in the past...

Alot of my family members have had teeth problems and they filled around the gum.Its guaranteed to break.Its always best to crown if the cavity is around the gum.You can fill it but I wouldn't wait to long to crown it there after .Sometimes a broken tooth can end up costing alot to fix.Alot more than a crown .I had cavities around my teeth and I now have eight crowns.You can fill some and crown some now if its a money thing and than replace the fillings one by one with crowns.All I know is that everyone I know got it filled and ignored it and now there teeth are gone.A good dentist will tell you so don't worry

Yes. I do this every day of the week. Except Sunday's. And Saturday's. Oh yeah. Never on a Wednesday either. But otherwise, every day of the week.
